I have a small k&n on mine. Don't go too small though or you actually cause a restriction!

I use a Pipercross trumpet sock, the biggest one they do is 120mm wide I think. Looks like this but new ones dont thave the slot cut out of them like this old one...

You need to fit a piece of material or a chain drilled pipe like this inside it. If you dont it will get sucked into the connected pipe and compress, causing a restricted air flow...

Here is a photo of it fitted, that end is open uder there and its open on the sides by more than 60%. I made 275 bhp on a TD04 using this...

What turbo is that?? ^
BMC and K&N
Not a fan on the sponge filters, unless it is durable like a type of urethane.
Seen it plenty times that a sponge filter rune a turbo and damage engine to some extent.
Pipercross is good stuff though :)

1.4 bar, its a TD04HL 19T, not a Subaru item. I was using Nitrous to get that now I think of it, made 248 without it.
