Panel Or Pod Air Filter In Standard Airbox

[Max Power]

I was thinking about putting a pod filter in the standard airbox to replace the panel filter. The filters will be k&n or bmc.

Ive been told that pod is better flowing than panel but I dont know if this applies to the T airbox.

Im predicting its gonna take some effort to mate it up to the pipe in the lid and angle it correctly so it fits in the base.

And yes, Im planning to add a 2nd CAI hose under the headlight.

So what does everyone reckon? Is it worth the effort?

My other idea is a stealth pod filter setup where a hole is cut through the bottom of the airbox and the ajoining sheetmetal and a pod filter (ala Geea style) is added. The airbox itself will house only a connecting pipe from the airbox lid down to the pod. I know the washer bottle is in the way but there still should be enough room with a bit of effort.

What do you think of this one?

Regards,

Max

In my opinion you're better off with a 2nd CAI and a BMC or a K&N panel filter. If you want what I think is the best option you could do something like this.

This was done by HPF but alot of places would be able to do similar.

WTF! Those cold air mods are crazy guys, serious stuff

What's it worth to get either Craig or Macka's setup? Is it a bit overkill for those of us with few mods and noplans for major mods or is it a goer regardless?

Rob, are you planning to get it done also? I mean, you have spent $$ on the cold air big mouth, so is it really a big gain for you is is warranty the concern?

George,

Maaaaate!!!

You don't put much of a price on those rather large and hairy arms & legs :lol: :lol:

You are one of a very select few that have driven the car. Looking out through the windscreen and over the bonnet. Would you say it's worth it.
