Post by: Rylarr on 01 July 2013, 18:33
i can deffo say that these are worth it!
i put one on my mk4 1.8t a few days ago and before my 007p was not making a noise, or that i could hear as the car is fully standard except a 3" turbo back... so that may have been drowning the sound :grin:

now tho with the S2000 filter on i can defo hear the turbo spooling and the 007p doing its job :cool:

and lets be honest lads, they look BEAST  :evil: haha

Title: Re: One for the S2000 filter boys
Post by: jamie16v on 01 July 2013, 23:17
can get them anywhere mate, theyre cheap as chips. as for the reducer, you can get it from ebay!
depending on your maf size, if you have standard it`ll be 86-70mm reducer.
read  this thread  (http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=255079.40), it`s been covered umpteen times  :smiley:

I've been looking all over the place trying to find a 86-70mm reducer but can't find any. I've read that a 80mm would do the job but will be very tight indeed.
Is it worth digging deeper to get the 86mm or will the 80mm be ok. As I've never held a s2k filter I don't know if I would end up breaking the connector end with brute force trying to squeeze an 80mm onto it.

I used an 80mm one, it is a really tight fit. I had to trim mine back a little bit to fit the filter in, I also found that a little bit of washing up liquid helped fitting it on :wink:

Where did you buy yours from dom , and when you say trim it back.... Do you mean trim it down in the length or trim the inside so you could get the filter inside ?

I trimmed some of the length off it, if I hadn't the filter wouldn't have fit inside the wing :grin:

Hi guys, I've put my s2000 filter on today and only had a slight increase as far as the noise from the dv is concerned. Not really noticed anything different compared to a pipercross panel filter.

Also , I've attempted to put a heatshield around it and what a palava.
It doesn't fit properly because of the size of the cone.

I was wondering if I took off the heatshield, would I get heat soak or would it be fine ?

Has anybody run this filter without a heatshield on a standard maf on an agu engine and was it ok or did it create problems ?
Title: Re: One for the S2000 filter boys
Post by: navmk4gti on 05 July 2013, 22:05
Make the hole bigger on the heat shield thats what i did so fits im my 4mo :wink:

Personally i would not run it without it. The filter got very hot without it.. now it stays cool even after a propa blast :wink:
Title: Re: One for the S2000 filter boys
Post by: welshdean on 05 July 2013, 22:18
The hole fits my maf perfect, and I've trimmed down the silicone reducer in order to get the filter actually inside the vehicle LOL
But when I do up the two bolts that should secure the heatshield in place it puts a lot of stress on the maf. As in... Nothing settles without a fight. With the heatshield off its fine, but when everything is connected there's quite a bit of strain on each part, reducer, filter and maf because of the awkward angle .
Also the heatshield I'm testing out has got quite a big hole that caters for a cold feed pipe that's not connected at the moment and it's currently allowing warm air to come through .

If people have run it without heatshoeld and experienced no problem, I can take it off and make life easier
Title: Re: One for the S2000 filter boys
Post by: dom on 05 July 2013, 22:25
Does the heatshield not have a crease in it? Mine does which allows it to bend, therefore eliminating stress on the maf.

Ive intergrated the s2000 filter into the heat shield, ill put some more close up pics of the convertion ive done on tomorrow, but it looks and performs great  :grin: and its fitted perfectly into wing
Had to cut a piece of the battery tray away to allow the cold air feed pipe to run from the vent in the bumper to the intake on the heat shield

hi guys, not been on here for a while posting. But thought I would just add something to this post

S2000 filters seem very popular and a lot of people are using them. However back to back tests have been done and found that s2000 filters don't flow as much air as a pipercross foam filter. Plus the pipercross filter is less prone to heatsoak than paper/oiled filters.

Best option I have seen on the market which out performs other filters is the kit R-Tech are doing at the moment, however they don't post kits. The kits use the Pipercross foam filters and these have shown great results on the dyno compared to other filters.

Do you have any dyno graphs of the back to back tests? Would be interesting to see what the difference actually is.

I don't, but im sure R-Tech will have. Will see what I can find out.

Remember, its all about flow and intake temperatures. If you can increase flow and get lower intake temperatures then more power can be made.

No I haven't yet as wanted to make sure everything fitted first ,now I'll measure up how much ducting/tubing I'll need and then cut holes in the r32 front grill for it,I always er on the side of caution when I'm doing stuff to the car as I usually f**k it up
Title: Re: One for the S2000 filter boys
Post by: navmk4gti on 23 July 2013, 16:29
If your grill is the open type then just put the cold air feed hose behind it.. no need to chop the grill up :wink:
