ITG vs PiperX

[fUbAr]

Simple question...

which panel filter for my standard 182. Please dont mention full induction kits because they're not needed... just the filter.

Pipercross, or ITG filter?

 

[JACKO CUP 172!]

MOST PEEPS GO FOR THE ITG...

^^ yer most ppl go for the itg, i did!

but nothing in it really!

pipercross is a tenner cheaper... just wondering why?

i bought the piperx cross filter but didnt make that much differance tbh.have now got the ik on it.

 

[makavelli]

i had the itg panel before my maxogen and thought it was excellent

 

[polarbert]

I was told by Andy @ GDI that there isn't any difference between them and the pipercross is just as good. I'd go for the pipercross. Think I will get one at next service.

ppl do tend to go for the name as i did for the viper , not going to make lot of difference performance wise , but 20 quid difference isn't alot of money either .

Forza ITG Tried em both. My experience, ITG filters better and keeps its transmissibility longer. For 182 get a Mk1RS orig. airbox and an ITG filter.

BMC's are pretty damn good as well, not sure on teh price of them for the RS's tho.

a decnt IK is better than panel filter - but v pricey

 

[fUbAr]

hmm... this hasnt really made the choice any easier lol

anybody use the k+n panel filter and is this any good

Id go for the cheaper option becuase lets face it, are you honestly gonna notice 0.00000000000001 bhp gain / loss ?

using your reasoning, i may as well stick with the OEM filter thats in there... which is rubbish.

its a known fact that aftermarket filters allow a better airflow into the engine.

I have piperx... Not had any problems.

I've got an ITG seem alright, doesn't whistle as much now.

 

[Neil G]

Can't go wrong with ITG, K&N or Green panel filters

On the Cup, I've got an ITG panel filter...much preferred over standard...but never used PiperX, so can't really comment on their use or decency.
