Using my original 2.5 na air box but I'm having to run a 2 metre hose from the top of it down under the intercooler pipe under the alternator to the turbo I'm thinking this needs to be shorter surely this would restrict air flow? Obviously got the wing intake going into it as well looks factory but I'm a bit concerned on how long the box to turbo pipe is?
Any reason you are running a pre filter?
On my tdi series 2 Im still running the original oil filled air filter set up, works well

Oil level is uaually marked in lower can section should be at a level that the mesh part of upper is emmersed. oil collects the dirt and needs renewing occasionally dependant on the number of miles and amount of dust.
Re defender engine mounts yes I have these fitted to my 200DI.

Well worth googling how an oil air cleaner works very clever, air shoots down the middle towards the oil, then does a 180 deg turn back up through the mesh and dirt is dropped into the oil with centrifugal force, I don't think mesh is actually in the oil.
Any old dirt cheap engine will do.
Worth changing the oil once a year and giving it a good scrub out, mine has been on for roughly 4 years and theres not a drop of oil mist inside the intake pipework, I would have to guess that a tdi flows at least twice as much air as the std diesel engine, which shows you just how good it is.
