k&n panel filter

[james2]

its not a oil ,its a spray ,ill find link . god i wouldnt trust foam ,cant even keep my pond clear.Greens better than k&n ,you just paying for the name. Green makes better filters were they silicon the rubber to the cotton it dont soak into the cotton and restrict it that tiny bit.

Are you for real? Pipercross make filters for a range of manufactures, the special foam is MORE than up to the job.

Do you really think they would / could sell a product that doesn't do what it is supposed to? Its a filter it stops crap from getting past it end off.

I have run one for over 5 years and thousands of miles 

i know but k&n will stop more crap,i always get cotton filters

The factory airbox and piping with no filter yielded a pressure drop of 5.0 inches of water or 0.18 psi. That means that the worst filter in this test only caused a pressure drop of 0.07 psi. In my opinion, this means that if you are picking an air filter based on performance, you probably aren't doing your car any favors. For the record, the K&N was the best flowing filter. Of the 3 types of media tested, the cotton gauze type filters flow best. http://www.bobistheoilguy.com/airfilter/airtest1.htm  use what you want but cotton beats foam.

fail:That said, both the cotton gauze type (K&N) and foam filters showed the same levels of filtration. Both performed poorly compared to the fiberous or paper filters (Napa, Baldwin, and Mazda).

Do you work for K & N 

I will say it again it is not the best choice for any 1.8t.
