K&n

[BLOODUK]

K&N are good filters or they wouldnt be so popular, if everyones using them its for a reason! cheap too

Touring car spoilers are popular and so are chav baseball style caps

you dont see me using em do you :!Removed!: oh yer you just said yourself

Cheap too , i wonder why there so popular then

[BLOODUK]

I'm not saying K&N are bad filters, but they are not up there with the likes of Apexi. You never see any highly tuned Jap cars with K&N filters do you ?

True

[dawolf]

Makes me laugh how people argue over the different brands of air filters. Yes I'm sure the jap brands are very good quality but there's nothing wrong with the likes of K&N and pipercross, they use them on rally cars. No air filter is gonna give massive power gains anyway, I bought mine just for the noise.

I bought mine just for the noise.

Ahhh so thats why chavs love em so much its the noise factor again

just like peco exhausts

[breezer]

drive past my car/house houston and il tell you if its loud or not!! i always have window open and i hear many cars before i see them, and tend to look out window to see who it is.

:D

[houston]

where u live like? just look for the green mr2 with the white alloys u cant miss it!!!

[breezer]

i live wenlock road!! at bottom next to hair dressers and newcastle road!! im off to my mates atm!! lol!!

if i see you around, il hear you first probably, unless i have the tunes pumping right off to mates to try wind deflectors

[BLOODUK]

lol i dont think champus likes k&N dont blame her really , k&n is not my most liked filter either... seen too many novas when k&n on :(

[breezer]

nice looking motor mate B) i know which ones yours now!! me and my mate passed as we were going to Halfords :D ;)

[houston]

so did u hear it? i was a passenger in it yesterday and really heard it more, must be cos it was right behind me. still havent spotted yours but im looking

[breezer]

lol!! you'l see it!! i have the only modded Yaris in South Shields silver, with tints and tsw razors, as in pic!! not hard to miss if i go past you :D :P although im usually out of the house all the time!!

I'll do a sound recording later on of my induction kit.

but at high speeds all you can hear is the turbo spooling, my mates say it's sounds "evil"

[Stu8]

Couldn't be bothered but luckly Breezer here's one I hosted earlier.

Click Me

[BLOODUK]

That it?

Joking cant really tell man , sounds like mine but a bit quiter must be all that turbo spooling going on

[Stu8]

Which one have you got?

I never did say it was the loudest induction kit :P

but it's certainly one of the biggest, the filter is about the same size as my head.

(Probably why the spooliing noise is so loud,)

that's a old vid by the way, the filter is now properly placed.

[ZeroBlade]

slightly off topic but... houston do ya live in jesmond?

And erm to go back on topic... the K&N does make a nice noise, got it on my girl and u can hear her suckin when ya switch the car on. Needs a clean tho, almost black in colour now!!!

[houston]

and breezer i think i saw your car, going down boldon lane then heading to hospital around 7pm? i was on the bus behind u!

[houston]

drove past a workmate today, without seeing the car he said he thought it sounded like a subaru reckons the whistle it has sounded like a turbo, i reckon hes hearing things ;)

[dawolf]

Yeah, my induction kit constantly sucks in, it also makes a high pitched noise when the clutch is pressed and easing off the gas, kinda sounds a bit like a dump valve, erm kinda

[ricomr2]

Mine sucks like mad on cold start up and give a little dump valve sound when you lift the clutch after shifting...

It also whistles when pressing the throttle gently

[Stu8]

maybe you've got a turbo and never knew it. :P

[jdbecks]

can i clean my filter with petrol or parafin? its k&n was already on the car when i got it

[houston]

buy some k&n cleaner, best to stick with the recommended stuff will only be about a tenner

[jdbecks]

yeah just finished cleaning....cost me 10.99 from Halfords for the k&n filter cleaner.....just waiting for the thing to dry lol!

stu8 i like what you done with your number plate looks smart.
