best panel filter...

[banderson]

for a mk2 182 'square' airbox?

itg, k&n, pipercross etc

i want a bit more sound from the front but not got the funds for the v6/ph1 airbox setup

whats the best in your opinion

I can't imagine there's a massive difference between them. I bought an ITG filter, does the job nicely.

 

[banderson]

does it give more noise than the standard?

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

Didn't really notice much to be honest. I changed it mainly because of the servicing advantages, you don't need to replace them often, just clean them up.

standard one

 

[banderson]

but it doesnt offer me the noise i seek fred

..unless i sit there making the noises myself! spose its a cheaper option :rasp:

chav

i was hoping no one was going to catch on fred guess i havent got to keep my reebok classics and adidas shell suit hidden no more

 

[Fred@BTM]

haha!

 

[banderson]

on a serious note though fred, what would you recommend for a little more noise? (already got the airbox cold air intake pipe removed...i think) is the standard filter actually better?

 

[Fred@BTM]

all of the 190+bhp cars i've done use the stock airbox with a stock filter, no one bothers cleaning the fancy ones and after time they end up knackered

 

[banderson]

im just fed up with the slight whistly sucking noise from the standard filter, rather a bit more noise to even it out from the noise of the milltek... so still might look into one as its only 30squid and if i dont like it SELL IT after all tuning is personal preference as much as it is technical

but thanks for the info fred altho you called me a chav lol

I have millitek and I use a k&n panel filter can't tell you the difference but I think its ok.

I think pipercross is the least restrictive out of the lot seen it talked about on here. If your looking for noise though you may be disappointed with just a new panel filter.

Don't bomb me...but if you're just after noise you want a cone filter
