Replacement Panel Filter

[dannyboy172]

Any suggestions and how good are they compared to standard filters?

 

[Timmay]

they are an improvemnt over original parts accordingly to my renault techinicain friend - get a good sound from them as well - im gonna get one cos i dont really think induction kits are worth the money

ITG is very good, no noticeable difference in performance, just makes the car drive a little smoother.

How do you rekon the itg panel filter will compare to my hillpower ik?

 

[Timmay]

i was told k and n panel filters were quite good as well

 

[Gareth]

I bought mine from a cs group buy so got it for good money, can't remember who the supplier was though. £50 seems a bit steep.

depends how you have got it setup, if you are losing power with you hill power then you will obviously notice a difference, depends how much cold air you are getting to it

 

[dannyboy172]

The hillpower ik is just running off the standard cold air feeds, so i guess this time of year they should be about the same? And in summer the panel one slightly better? Going on my setup that is.

Just gonna notice a big difference is noise eh?

 

[Timmay]

to be honest i get a really good noise at the moment and all ive don is pull the air box off! as a temp measure of course til i get a panel filter

 

[Gareth]

i don't think you will notice a difference with noise and the ITG filter, I didn't really, but then I don't care about noise, I just want the engine to run at its best. I used to know some mates with TTs, they all drilled holes into the original airboxes for the 'noise', ffs. WTF?

This looks like the one i'll go for:
