Best replacement panel filter for CUP

[RSTDL]

Anyone changed the standard element - pipercross, Green, JR, K&N? Prefer Green or Pipercross, but dont want a full induction Kit?

I have had green,K&N and ITG and i have to say the ITG filter was the best quality and fit for a replacement on a megane coupe 1.6 16v. This is only my opinion and i am new to the club but i bet there will be loads of differing opinions. From experience if ITG do one for the Cup get it, they also custom make panels filters which they done for my old coupe.

Its the same as a regular 172 - I put a Pipercross in mine a while ago.

Hey telford Mike are you saying that my ITG filter off my coupe will fit my new Clio Cup ?

Mike - did you notice any noise/power differnce?

Get a Viper kit, its similar to a panel filter?!

- Reth Clio cup - no! I meant that the Cup airbox is the same as a regular 172 airbox - its a totally different shape to a Megane item (I also have a Megane 1.6 16v).

- CUPSIZE? - no discernable effect on noise. Power gains are unknown, the car will be on the rollers on Saturday though so if I get 100bhp more than everyone else Ill post here!

The panel filter does save money though, as it can be cleaned and re-oiled, so you dont need to replace the air filter each time you have a service.
