Green cotton or k&n?

[mike1pow]

What do people recommend out of the two induction kits?

Currently have k&n panel and removed acoustic valve but want a bit more sound.

Kits are roughly same price on the bay so which one should I get???

Also, if anyone has a pic of a green cotton fitted please put it up as I can't find one!

Cheers, mike

Are you thinking of getting an open cone filter?

If so i wouldn't you will suffer heatsoak and lose power, Get an enclosed filter like BMC.

Get an enclosed filter like BMC.

worst advice EVER. BMC is a terrible filter



I like Green Cotton filters, you just have to locate it well and sheild from direct heat sources

Little update, ended up getting the K&N and fitted it this afternoon.

The sound it makes is emense! Sounds V-Tec'ish about 5200 then just screams there after!

Really happy with it. Dont seem to of lost any noticable power either.

I bought and fitted a k and n to my 182,

is your air feed pipe from bumper 2cm away from the cone?

Did you fit the pipe that came with it, under the car? I didn't.

Hard to hear the noise over my exhaust but I can hear it screaming away slightly lol

if you couldn't hear me coming before you can now lol
