Honda S2000 air filter?

[antnee]

I haven't seen anyone using a S2000 airfilter on a Clio yet, but it is common on a lot of other marques.

For those who don't know, the S2000 as standard uses a large cone filter but it is still made from paper. So you gain filter surface area without compromising filtration quality. I know there are some turbo companies who won't honour any warranty unless a paper filter has been used, so the S2000 filter is the one of choice.

Has anyone tried one? Results?

The filter neck is 70mm, which is there or thereabouts the neck size of the 197 airbox

Nice, wasnt aware of these. Although for a similar price you can get the ramair cone which is cleanable http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=350687872196&alt=web

But it isn't paper. Paper filter offer the best filtration, hence why these are popular.

Ah ok. I may be tempted to give one a try on the 197, but after removing the airbox / battery surround once before, i vowed i would never do it again, horrible job
