benm Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 I like/use the K&N Panel Filter in the original airbox. No loss of power, no annoying induction sounds like a pod and best of all its totally legal.

SRG33 Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 I had a K&N pod filter with chrome tip, was ok at the start but requires oiling every 50,000kms or so.. I would strongly suggest buying a filter which does not require oiling as my idle has stuffed up as a result of using one.. too much oil.. probli stuk in afm.. Anyways i bought a Blitz LM Filter and it works fine so far and has much less lag than the K&N.. Got it at Autobarn for $170..

someonestolecc Posted May 7, 2005 Share Posted May 7, 2005 The few semi-empirical tests I've read apexis flow and filter the best. HKS pods don't filter well. *So I've heard* I use a noname pod atm and will be switching to an apexi when I can.

Tigger Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 Get the Blitz SUS LM the stainless mesh one, no need to oil, just take off and rinse with water =] It also makes a ripper of a sound with a blowoff value like 'woosh' sound when you take your foot off the throttle Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/72728-air-filter-which-1/#findComment-1344134 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evil Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 i have a k&n filter and it's great... don't need to oil it that often either... Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/72728-air-filter-which-1/#findComment-1344325 Share on other sites More sharing options...
97Sky Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 I have had both K&N pod and panel and I prefer the panel filter due to the fact its quieter and dosent require cleaning as much. Only get a pod if your going to setup some sort of cold air partition otherwise its just sucking in hot air from your engine bay. Hope this helps.

someonestolecc Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 Get the Blitz SUS LM the stainless mesh one, no need to oil, just take off and rinse with water =] I'd like to know where I could have a look at one of these (I'm interested to see how it would filter). Where did you get it? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/72728-air-filter-which-1/#findComment-1344360 Share on other sites More sharing options...
nismo34 Posted May 11, 2005 Share Posted May 11, 2005 Apexi pod filter here, nice sound from it can even hear factory BOV sound. And never need cleaning or replacing.. i think.. Read a comparison report somewhere, Apexi was best on flow and filter...

Tigger Posted May 11, 2005 Share Posted May 11, 2005 someonestolecc: my blitz filter was on the car when i bought it so i dunno where you could pick one up from... try UAS or JustJap perhaps? i havent had much experience with other pods but im very happy with the one i've got now Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/72728-air-filter-which-1/#findComment-1345280 Share on other sites More sharing options...
