I assure you that the Bentley manual doesn't and wouldn't ever tell  
you to visit the dealer. I believe you are looking at your owners  
manual, possibly a reproduction of it published by Bentley Publishing.  
The average Bentley repair manual is about the size of a yellow pages  
phone book.

Removing the air filter should just simply be a matter of disengaging  
4 clips arround the perimiter of the air filter box then lifting the  
loose half off.

Both http://www.2bennett.com and http://www.034motorsport.com should  
have some performance stuff to look over.
