I bought one at Donny, I've already got a K&N kit but felt like a change. I like both, the only noticable difference is that the BFO is slighly noisier.

The BFO Cone is exclusive through PVD who paid for all the development and tooling costs, so it's more than a gimmick.
As for availability for the GSi - it will fit 94-45 models with the X16XE Ecotec engines - not 93-94 models with the C16XE engiens.

We don't do a BFO kit as such for the C20XE, but we should have some universal BFO's in soon with the correct size neck.

Universal BFO's should be £69.95
As for warranty, it is illegal for a manufacturer to say an air filter has invalidated your warranty, so it should be fine.
