Default Which Panel Filter?

Hi all

This has probably been asked before, but I was hoping to get some advice from experienced owners. I have a Blobeye JDM STI and was wondering which panel filter to go for?

It seems that K&N and Cosworth are good ones, but can anyone advise which one I should go for please?

Thanks in advance.

Sti panel filter, these were made for jdm cars not the cheapest but probably the best (and yes I run one in my jdm blob )

Do lucks suck, the OP wants a filter that does exactly what it says on the box, filters
STI will be more than suitable to the OP's needs

Hi Tony, Nic

I have been on to RCM but there seem to be two different ones. Can you help identify which one I should buy?

Both have the same product number and seem for all years, but prices and boxed dimensions vary. I have a 2003 blobeye.

Thanks, much appreciated.

Probably best to ring them up with your car details
