ITG Filter, what differences could I see?

[sthomasj10]

Hi all, I'm not really one to want to modify performance based stuff on my 197.

However, I've seen a lot of people talking about ITG filters of recent and have seen K Tech sell them for only £50. I'm guessing with a modern car, there's no need to replace air filters and such stuff?

What difference would I see from an ITG? May sound stupid, will it void warranty too?

Thanks

Sam

Won't void warranty, will make a small improvement to performance, unlikely to be noticeable. Camskill are usually cheapest for these.

I have one fitted on mine, You wont really feel anything performance wise, the car will feel a little smoother and you may get a few more MPG out of it.
No it wont void the warranty.

As said by Ralphy, get it from camskill. £43 posted or something like that mine was.

it saves having to change it every year just needs popping out and giving it a good clean

It's reusable so if you keep the car for a few years you'll probably end up saving money.

Confirm what has been said, but I thought mine improved the noise slightly. But don't get me wrong it's all very small, hardly noticable differences. But it pays for itself after 3 years.

Maybe a slight improvement to throttle response, but that could just be in my head.

Has to be better than the standard paper jobbie though I would think.
