Panel filters...ITG??
« on: 09 March 2009, 09:53 »
Anyone used these?? They seem like quite top end stuff, and it's £40 for a panel filter, which is pretty much what you pay for a K&N or Pipercross, am I right?? Any reviews on them??

combine it with a drilled airbox and yes.

yes that was nick. Pipercross have been getting better and better lately by the sound of things. I remember days where K&N filters were in every car. now its a bigger market though.

im running a green cotton panel filter on my ABF, spot on. not sure if there are any gains to be had but the green looks cool when you open the airbox  :grin:
