Default What kind of air filters?

I was just wondering what kind of filters you guys are running on your set-ups? I know I wont have a lot of room on mine and was just wondering. I swore I saw someone somewhere running a foam cylinder green filter. I got a cone but it has a pretty big opening and my turbo is pretty small. I was thinking alot of people use wire mesh stuff too, but i just wanted to see what esle people are using.

I just put a cheap *** filter on my car, I drove my car without any filter for the winter(no dust and ----).
Now it's getting warmer here and there is a lot of dust...better to be safe then sorry
