i have an exhaust so dont want the roar of an induction kit.

just purely performance,

i dont want it to suffer from heatsoak either... any ideas people?

is a panel filter the best option?

I think the pipercross viper kit is the best for performance, giving 10+ bhp ? also its cold air fed.

Yep the Viper is the best performance wise or the K&N Typhoon similar piece of kit!

Yet both are the most expensive

Whats Heat Soak?

OllyBlox · Mar 3rd, 2006, 09:35 PM

When the filter draws in hot air from the engine bay. This happens with the open filters, and can cause a loss in performance.

My open filter has a direct cold air feed from the front of the car, so I have not noticed any loss in perormance, even on really hot (45 degree+) days.
