matty01

But how much quicker is it ?

16vmarc

I reckon its knocked 3secs off my 0-60 time and added 100mph top end!

Nah, that'll be the clear indicators you fitted at the same time.

16vmarc

No cant b as the box said that they would add at least 25bhp!!!

skoosh

You guys crack me up !

It's at least 50 bhp increase for a green filter and 38.5 bhp for the indicators.

Why do you always underestimate ?

Skoosh.

16vmarc

Cos we`re modest!!!!!!!

So, what's that filter then? What make and where did you get it?
Realistically,what power increase are we looking at?Does it suit classic as well as the new age scoobs?

7 Foot

Green is the make
TSL sell them
They make bugger all difference to power...maybe a little.
Yes you can get them for a classic.


If all of the above is correct i will be amazed.

Its a Green cotton panel filter. Cost me £45 from Larkspeed in leeds. Replaces the oe filter in the airbox. It is oiled and allows air to flow alot more freeley (sp) in2 the engine. The box says a 4bhp increase.

Before ne1 says, the box says not me!

There was a 22B in jap performance other month that had a green induction kit, it lost power. He fitted a panel filter and gained power.

Obviously marginal gains.

I replaced my filter with a k&n panel filter .
The car run as rough as **** so i replaced it with original and car ran fine again .

Did you try and find out why Phil? If everything else under your bonnet was working properly, there's no way a properly fitted panel filter could cause "rough" running.

misty

Did you take the air box out to fit the k&n?
its a tad smaller than the standard filter, and if you don't, the top of the air box sometimes can allow air in past the filter. I put one in 1000mls ago no probs at all.

I got it from a friend who has a my95 wrx we checked to see if the original was the same as the k&n they were so i fitted it .
Could this have been the reason why .
It was fitted properly with a bit of ease .

misty

Phil, I bought mine new and the instructions were specific that it must be fitted the way they said for the above reason,
