_BR1TT0N_ Posted April 16, 2014 Posted April 16, 2014 (edited) Hey guys, right got to get an air filter now. Heard the cones aren't much use other than making some noise which I don't need lol what's the best panel filter to replace oem in your opinions to go for? And what's the best way to get it taking cold air! Edited April 16, 2014 by _BR1TT0N_ Quote
GMballistic Posted April 16, 2014 Posted April 16, 2014 K&N, Cosworth, Pipercross.... etc. Everyone seems to have varying opinions on these. Tbh if I still had my standard air box I'd go for this one; http://www.h-dev.co.uk/product_info.php?cPath=78_169_293_472_479&products_id=25053 Quote
Darren350 Posted April 16, 2014 Posted April 16, 2014 Replaced mine with a HKS super hybrid purchased from Clark Motorsport on here. Think it was £35 delivered. Got good reviews from the chaps on here so bought it and came with next day delivery too. Plus it's bright green, haha Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2 Quote

Oh and they're green 1 Quote
coldel Posted April 17, 2014 Posted April 17, 2014 Pipercross and K&N are oiled filters which *apparently* can block the air flow sensor - non oiled ones work just as well, play it safe even if it is baloney about the oiled ones. Quote

rabbitstew Posted April 17, 2014 Posted April 17, 2014 General consensus when I was looking for air filters for my HR model was that either the standard ones or the cosworth ones were the best. You wont get any difference in power. Quote

You wont get any difference in power. +1 agree when I read up on this the cosworth came out best but all the tests were with the old hks filter, the new super hybrid gets much better reviews performance wise there is no difference really I have certainly read a lot of problems with the k&n oiled filters on the porsche forums, user error ?? to me it wasn't worth the hassle Quote
RobPhoboS Posted April 17, 2014 Posted April 17, 2014 (edited) I picked up an HKS super hybrid from Abbey when I was there on a dyno day, I'm happy with it. Edited April 17, 2014 by RobPhoboS Quote
