There are many options. I switched to the Mini-Madness JCW filter.

IMHO the Amsoil Nanofilter is vastly superior to other options.... more efficient filtration than gauze, very high flow, just blow it out to clean it - no washing or oiling required. Highly recommended by Terry Dyson (oil guru) too for it's excellent filtration and flow.

I've been running mine for about 30,000 miles and love it. I just blow it out whenever it's convenient to open the airbox - once every 10,000 miles or so - but it could go much longer between cleanings.

I went with the ITG fits perfectly into the stock airbox and has the little mount tab to secure it in there, alot of others don't have this handy little feature, easy to clean. Got it here:

Looks like the ITG or the KN clone are the front runners. We're heading to AMVIV, and if we see one of them for a good buy, I'll probably get it.
I've had foam type air cleaners on my MGB for years, and they worked just fine. I'm not a big fan of the Amsoil type of filter shown. They're very similar to the filter in my vacuum cleaner, and that thing can never get fully clean.

I went with this and installed it today and man oh man, my mini drives like a whole other vehicle. I was spinning the tires in every gear up to 4th which I was not able to do driving to the garage to get it swapped (too cold to do it at my house)
Love it so far
I do have an S with a stage 1 JCW and airbox. It fits width and height wise but was an inch shorter than stock paper filter. But it's secured on tightly by the clamp

Been running these for years. I go ahead and replace them every couple of years anyway.

Not a bad idea considering how long they last and can be reused and inexpensive they are comparative to the paper JCW one
