Clean Your Pod Filters For Summer

[Bart Japan]

Before my car went in for a tune on the PFC I thought I would do what I could to help peak power. So over the weekend I cleaned my pod filters.

You should have seen the stuff I got out of them

So I have the Cleaning Gear...

A lot of cleaning but it must be worth it....

oiled filters pick up so much shit... apex dry panel here, i just blast it out with compressed air every time i get a chance, will replace it with an apex pod when i CBF making ducting/sheild.

i should probably do the same thing...i don't think my pod (apex paper element) has ever been cleaned since it was put on in japan lolz.

LOL!

Thats not your kitchen sink is it? And what are you using to clean them, laundry powder..?

You can buy K&N Air filter cleaner or a can of VHT air filter cleaner from auto barn and do it outside...

soup anyone?

That was using K&N cleaner. Took 95% of the cleaner to get the water a little clean. That sink is very big, so don't tell the greenies but I would have used 100L to flush them clean. And not mountain stream clean, just so the water wasn't black.

do you use the same way to clean panel filter yes?

LOL!

Bart did you use a whole bottle of K&N filter cleaner? Looks like it from what your sink looks like.

Just spray it on and soak the filters and allow it to soak in for about 10mins then hose off.

Preferbly done out doors. Haha!!

[Bart Japan]

I swear to you.

I did it as the instructions said.

I just kept getting more and more out of them. The water was milky in the first wash. Obviously too much cleaner added, then it got blacker before it got cleaner. It was amazing how much fine dust came out of them

Anyway had the car at RE the other day and Ray got it up to 257rwkw said that it was in really good nick and the curve was really smooth. It feels so different now. No running off its tits but I think that is the conservative 1.3 bar he has it maxing at. So besides the suspension, handling brakes and tires she is all ready for gymkhana at Shep.

LOL!

Awesome Bart. 257rwkW sounds good to me for a street car.
