Just a shame a foam filter doesn't filter air as well as a cotton filter.

its not just the foam though, its also the viscosity and spec of the oil that is used on it that helps in filtration

....My ITG flat panel foam filter got very sticky over time :sad1:. I hope this ITG doesn't or it'll be a royal PITA to restore.

they require a service every 320k i believe which involves cleaning it and re-oiling.  dead simple to do

....Andy at ITG he told me 60,000 miles for their flat panel. Might be simple for you to do but I don't do tedious and messy.

not entirely sure why it says 320k there, it was meant to say 20k, but that would be a personal preference.

Love the sound from my itg I was under the impression that the itg improved filtration over standard, that's what I was told from itg themselfs !

The lift off back fed air woosh is too addictive though, not good at all for mpgs !
