Do nothing to the engine other than keep it happy.

Save the money for an engine conversion.

Yeah, nothing will make it quick so i'll leave it for now. Enigne conversion is out of the window since I am getting my Civic 1.5i VTEC in 6 months... I'll just have to put up with this engine for now.

Pipercross don't recommend drilling the airbox - so you might want to point the finger elsewhere... Pipercross filters are OE replacements, not filters for bodged airbox mods

If you still think it's the filter that blew your AMM, get it in writing to Pipercross and mark it for customer services.

Yup, over-oiling (which the customer does) is to blame for nearly all MAF/AMM failures.
