Which air filter...?

[Gez]

Hi everyone

Looking into the panel filters for my 200, there's so much choice out there it's hard to decide.

What are you all using? I know I'm not going near ktec's.

ITG, BMC, K&n, pipercross?

Anyone shed some light please

Most people go for ITG, I have their induction kit (Maxogen)

Whatever you can get the best deal on mate, I've got an ITG but a K&N or piper cross would do exactly the same job

Cheers for the quick replys

Where's the best site to buy either from?

ITG - Camskill

This seems to be the best price:

Demon tweeks on eBay

Just checking it's the right one.

i changed from itg to pipercross only difference is the price, and the piercross was a thinner filter

Just out of interest and without rocking any boats,,,, wassup with the ktec offering?

ITG panel here. In it when I bought it so can't really compare. Does the trick. May take the trumpet and hose off as I've heard theres a slight.....induction noise increase. Just gotta dig out the how to

A few of the Twingo boys have experience with the K-Tec filter breaking up.

I have an ITG in our 200. Though looking at a Pipercross next me thinks.

@ Ryan. Where did you get your Pipercross filter?

There's also meant to be a 20bhp loss associated with doing this...

Think your gettin confused with the air filter cover bud

Rip the acoustic valve off. No power loss and sounds gruntier down low. Might just be the noise and placebo affect but I reckon it feels a tad stronger at low revs too.

Leave the airbox lid on.

 

[Roary197]

So no significant drop or reason not to remove the trumpet jobby then?

 

[lewisflintham]

I've got an ITG. To be honest...probably a waste of money unless you're keeping your car for years and are goin to save on replacement costs. Hey, at least you get a sticker for the top of your air filter box. I really can't say I noticed any difference.

I've used K&N for more years than I wish to remember and would not use anything else. TBH it's all personal choice when you go for a decent brand.
