which pannel filter????????
hi all hope you had a merry xmas and looking forward to the new year.
I have just been looking on jap parts, i want to get an oil free pannel filter for a MY99 uk turbo but i'm torn between the STI and the ZERO sports, ther's not much in the cost, just wondered if any one has used or knows which will be best.
cheers all

Was told some aftermarket filters muck up the MAF sensor..

As for the STi panel fitler, its a service item, 15-20k changes, its high quality which is its advantage, cost wise, more than reasonable
Easy to fit, its just the cover is a pain to close (remember the STi one is the only official Subaru Japan product designed for the JDM STi's )

You will see gains, mainly towards the top end, but classics have a tendancy to loose bhp and gain torque with these panel filters, though its torque your after really
(torque = drivability)

I use a Green Panel filter. I already had free flowing exhaust sections fitted and when I dropped this in I did notice improved performance on my new age. The difference is very slight ofcourse, but the car is breathing better over 5-5.5k rpm with it.
