Title: Which panel air filter?
Post by: Wilky1974 on August 5, 2015, 20:15

Hi folks. I have a 2004 ( 54 ) FL Roadster. I have just managed to source a Markiii pipe and I would like to replace my standard panel filter which is looking a little grotty. Can anyone recommend a decent filter? My obvious choice would have been a K&N but I believe they may be pre-oiled and this could cause the MAF to get gunked up. I know I am not going to get any noticeable extra performance but was hoping to get a bit more induction noise s:D :D s:D

Stick with a new stock filter.
I belive it's the same as for the 2zz which flows loads more air.
Have been down this route with KN and markiii pipe.
Would recommend the pipe but not the filter.

I was very happy with my TOM's panel filter. It's a foam filter as opposed to cotton - so you don't have the oil/MAF issues. Defintely got a but more induction noice.
It also just happens to be for sale at the moment s:lol: :lol: s:lol: !
