Need A Expert On Air Filters

[baron25]

Wrong!! In a number of ways. Twin pods are popular but on my RB25DETT in the track car I ran single AFM and single pod, however the stock GTR setup is single airbox and is good enough for my 260rwkw/0-100 in 4.02s.

I did realise that twin setups can be run off a single filter, but AnjoO was aksing about having multiple pods for a single setup - which IMO is pointless, the only real time when having multiple intakes would have a potential benefit is in a twin system.

If you want the loudest pod, the HKS one is the go.

I have one and the induction noise is huge - pity it's one of the worst filters!

But then again my pod is shielded so I'm not worried about that. Get a pod and you should always pair it with a box or shield.

i have a apexi pod on my r33 and to be honest after 8 months of driving the car im sick of the induction noise.i have brought a standed airbox and will be putting that on to see if that shuts it up some . the car came with the pod and i have brought the standed box since with a good pannel filter i dont expect to drop power just lose some of the noise i hope

cheers

Many GTRs use the twin pod for big single setup as well.

Heres an idea,....

Get a microphone and mount it under your hood near the STANDARD EFFICIENT and LEGAL filter box

and amplify it through your stereo system so you can deafen yourself and impress all the 14 yo schoolboys waiting for the bus in your area.

SK I think your right!

Cue grumpy old men

We can have fast cars without stupid noises.......

Just for when you really need more airflow. Less than 300rwkw the standard size panel seems fine.

There is a website somewhere that had a comparison between a heap of filters apexi was on top flowed slightly better but filtered the best by far. I got one on my car from nengun

You don't need the kit for an RB25

Yeh well the pod selection is easy the next problem would be heatshielding. All good too put on a pod filter but if its sucking in hot air then can anyone say detonation!! especially on those lovely 40 degree plus australian summers.

man, get the apexi kit from greenline or nengun (check to see which is cheaper)

I got the twin pods on my gtr and they are loud enuff, and as you saw on the website test, the filter the best too.

the noise on a twin setup on a rb26 is much quiter than a single pod on an rb25

PS, I put this thread up there in my Top 20 worst ever questions

LOL sk!

Anyway - I have a LOUD K&N pod filter. I hate it, its too loud.

Anyway I have a custom heatshield, it fits R33. If you want it offer me $50plus $10 postage

Reason for sale - I now have a proper CAI box, from Maxx.

I also have a standard R33 airbox (no snorkel) with brand new B&N panel filter for $100 plus post if anyone is intrested.

to make a pod legal (in qld anyway) all you need is a fixed mount for it, for example a bar than comes from the adapter plate to one of the stock airbox mounts.

i have a front mount and can't run the stock airbox as i can't use the snorkel, so the airbox just sucks hot air, but i have a cold ait feed to the pod from the front bar, up through the empty intercooler hole.

having the pod partioned is only good if you have a feed to it. if you just have it partitioned off with no air feed to it then you will lose power.

i plugged the recirulation hole in the stock bov and that cut down a slight bit of induction noise. if you want a pod with minimal noise go for a k&n with the power intake top (the flat top one). i have had one before on my 180sx and it made no induction noise, and i'm veen in a skyline that had one with no noise, but it did have a slight partition. i will have to ask him if he has nosie now that he has put a hks filter on to see if is just the partition.

hmm i was about to by the apexi kit, now that i know that just the pod is enough, it makes it easier! Im suprised that it didnt quite work for anjoO's r34 though...
