just read the instructions and cleaning every 6 months is recomended, what are peoples experiences with cleaning intervals?

is it really neccasary? i bought this thinking i could put it in and leave it for a fair while before i had to do anything with it.

not entirely bothered if it has to be cleaned this often, just wondering if this was a time period given for the most extreme usage situation? (i only do about 7k a year)

cheers

 

sorry to butt in mate but is the green panel filter any good - do notice any fluttering noises etc?

 

Ive used a green filter and never heard any fluttering

Sounds like you purchased a butterfly in a green box by accident

 

hope so! seems to get the thumbs up around here and has to be better than the ITG that's on there now (although it has given over 2 years of good service,so can't complain)

i don't think you'll get any noise with a panel filter mate, if you do it'll only be a little. not that i can hear a damn thing over my newly fitted firestorm anyway

 

hi stephen i used to have a stainless steal cone filter on mine then took it off so put the car dback to standard for selling.so i put the old green panel filter that it came with from japan back on dont know what make it is but.i do notice a sort of a fluttering sort of hissing at the same time.its hard to explain but its a not sort of like a whoosing sound if you know what i mean.hope that is any help if you can understand what ive just wrote cos i bearly can

 

I can hear the turbo spooling up with my green cotton filter in, much better than the ITG I had in there
