Out of interest has anyone tried the new KTR Air Filter for the new Clio RS 200 Turbo?

If so, any comments?

I HAVE HAD THIS IN MY CAR SINCE DAY ONE

DYNO RESULTS SHOW AN 8BHP INCREASE IN POWER AT THE TOP OF THE REV RANGE

Find that incredibly hard to believe.

Snap, where was this dyno'd? Not at K-tec was it?

it is a turbo car though, so gains are normally higher, but i do find performance filters silly because no one ever cleans them and in order to increase airflow you reduce filtration (in my opinion) i always try and use standard paper filters that actually filter!

Seems a little happy though for just an air filter to me ..

 

[Fred@BTM]

the GTR's do about +20bhp on panel filters from memory

He's certainly pleased with his air filter!

you shouldn't really admit to stuff like that on the internet, warranty void if your engine goes bang and Renault find your posts

So how do you know it's up 8bhp?

Not sure if KTR's stuff falls in with the Block exemption either..

Might just have been 8bhp up just on what renault say I've seen a standard mk1 focus rs do 30bhp more then what ford said
