Right, I want to change the air filter on my 225. Any body got any recomendations??

Moose,

Just ordered the ITG panel filter from K-tec. Supposed to be the panel filter of choice over K&N.

I'll let you know what it's like when it turns up.

got a green cotton replacement panel filter on mine, works pretty well. (DCI though)

K&N £37 inc postage works a treat

Take from Meganeownersclub.........

K & Ns are bad news, particularly in cars that have tight under bonnet areas and turbos. The excess heat causes the oil to "move" after the car has been standing for a bit, say 15 - 20 minutes and then it (the oil) gets into the throttle box and onto the odd sensor! Other than the fact that after a few months you'll lose that seemingly extra bit of urge as the airflow reduces!

Now I know I've said this before and no doubt I will again! Every time we have a car in on the rolling road and it has K & Ns we run it up on the dyno, point out the figures to the owner, then remove the things and attach a supplementary airbox with a highflow cleaner. BHP ALWAYS increases.

Mainly the reason I went with ITG (along with some other opinions elsewhere).

I suppose you pays yer money......

Pipercross is a good product. I want one of those Viper kit also :roll:

The air box they probably add is brand new and as clean as anything so it would always up the bhp if it has more flow...


So if the k&n was brand new and clean i would have thought it would have the same results...


:?

few peeps on here running K&N id advise them to remove and go for Greenfilters (straightforward and really good filtration + fairly cheap) or ITG. the oil on the K&N causes some problems

True! Oil and dust = poor air flow!
