What air filter? - Niall - 22-03-2014

As the title suggests, I'm looking for a air filter for my car as my current KnN is f*cked and probably a bit too small for the eventual bhp.

So far, I've thought i can either stick with KnN and get something like this:

http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/performance/universal-air-filters/kn-filters-universal-round-straight-air-filter

Which with the 70mm neck i require, is apparently good for 255bhp

or the other i thought of was:

http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/performance/universal-air-filters/green-filters-universal-twin-cone-cylindrical-air-filter

Which at 70mm, is good for 325bhp although these figures are from deamon tweaks so not 100% sure on them.

The KnN is about 20 quid cheaper but I've heard very good things about green cotton filters. Opinions?

Cheers

I'd go with Green.

Any particular reason/experience?

Cheapo 7.99 one off eBay.
I had a enclosed piper cross on the 6 which I thought was good but after putting the open Cheapo filter on the engine livened up massively. Much more free flowing.

You need an enclosed carbon filter i think. Maybe theres one in the forsale section...


RE: What air filter? - Niall - 22-03-2014

£30 delivered and you have a deal

Go for a BMc filter

Same construction type as a k and n but much cheaper
