Bellato Donating Members 2,713 Member For: 14y 3m 20d Posted 29/09/14 10:55 AM Share Posted 29/09/14 10:55 AM Quick questionGetting a new tune next week and I can get a 9" long 4" KnN pod for $70 and wondering whether its worth replacing the 6" long pod my turbo side came with? Anyone actually had a retune after a bigger filter and noticed any difference?Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not then get the replacement K & N. If they are both K & N I wouldn't bother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be a direct comparison of 2 tuners that way also Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting that there would be that much extra space available lolI'm missing the pod in setup (and also the silicone to the turbo/clamps)....and asked plazmaman for replacement parts + postage and came to $181. I'm thinking I might be able just to source a pod from ebay or something....then I will only need the one silicone piece. So when searching all I would need isa) 4" inlet andb) 9" length ? and obviously 'cone' design/shape (I think there's a proper name for it on the K&N website but forgot the 'term' they use).

Maybe Bellato can hurry up and answer me already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bellato Donating Members 2,713 Member For: 14y 3m 20d Posted 01/10/14 03:02 AM Author Share Posted 01/10/14 03:02 AM (edited) I have a rapid kit, can squeeze the 9" long filter in, plaz is the same (mate has one) but not 100% sure on PW but I believe it has a shorter filterSomething like this, although this seems very cheap compared to others for some reasonhttp://www.ebay.com.au/itm/k-n-pod-filter-4-inch-neck-9-long-tapered-suit-high-performance-non-genuine-/201166666979?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2ed677bce3 Edited 01/10/14 03:03 AM by Bellato Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't remember from our PM's from ages ago lol Stupid me for not reading your sig properly .... clearly states RAPID V2.0 Kit hahahah my bad....Thanks for the reply....I have the Plaz Airbox...so will measure again 2nite to confirm it will definitely fitJust looked at your link and noticed it says (non genuine)....since when the fark do they sell fake K&N filters :/ that's BS....cause if you look at the picture they clearly have K&N stamped on the top of pod, looks like the same material and even has the same freaking box!!!! That sucks, cause I bet it would be pretty easy to pay a premium price for a fake one (if ebayer was not honest) it even has a part number on the box which I will try and research later to confirm if its a genuine number....I wonder if they would both perform the same?
