thinking if going defiltered???...... - Piggy - 17-10-2014 Doing a service ahead of the RR...every little counts ![]() Anyway, I do 5k miles intervals and I am doing it 1k early... So my air filter has done 4k miles. So you would imagine it isnt that dirty??..... [attachment=19644] Thats from turning it up side down and giving it a good few taps on the worktop! And this is after 2mins soaking in hot water and washing powder... [attachment=19645] Yeauch!!! RE: thinking if going defiltered???...... - Niall - 17-10-2014 It doesn't surprise me. I just need to see how much duller the colour of mine has gone in the 1.5k miles since it was fitted That said if all that dirt came from inside it, you need a decent filter! RE: thinking if going defiltered???...... - Piggy - 17-10-2014 Its a BMC so I think its pretty decent tbh Amazing really as its tucked in behind the headlight, I have plans to improve cold air flow to it which would increase dirt flow!! ![]() RE: thinking if going defiltered???...... - bigcheez2k3 - 17-10-2014 Over 10k being de-filtered now, I tend to just take it slowly near puddles on the drivers side ![]() RE: thinking if going defiltered???...... - Dum-Dum - 17-10-2014 Filters really do pick up a huge amount of dirt. RE: thinking if going defiltered???...... - Piggy - 17-10-2014 Fyi big cheez, I didnt find any water in my filter from puddles!! I rekon those turbo blades o yours be proper battered! RE: thinking if going defiltered???...... - darrenjlobb - 17-10-2014 Isnt that what the turbo compressor is for? Munching big objects into engine consumable sized ones? ![]() RE: thinking if going defiltered???...... - Jonny81191 - 17-10-2014 (17-10-2014, 09:09 PM)darrenjlobb Wrote: Isnt that what the turbo compressor is for?

Seeing as the turbos are generally hidden behind the engine, I reckon they probably get less shit near them than a filter near the front where all the air comes in. RE: thinking if going defiltered???...... - Piggy - 17-10-2014 Yeah true, they just get loads of hot air, water and oil ![]() RE: thinking if going defiltered???...... - bigcheez2k3 - 17-10-2014 (17-10-2014, 09:59 PM)Piggy Wrote: Yeah true, they just get loads of hot air, water and oil Probably, but that noise ![]() RE: thinking if going defiltered???...... - Piggy - 17-10-2014 I can assure you I have plenty of lovely turbo noise RE: thinking if going defiltered???...... - lolsteve - 17-10-2014 (17-10-2014, 09:37 PM)Mattcheese31 Wrote: Filter?
