Title: Best panel filter?
Post by: gadge on June 18, 2009, 07:00:07 pm
Are they all the same or is there one brand that stands out slightly?

Ive used Green cotton panel filter, if its a panel filter they are all pretty much the same unless you want to modify the air intake housings.

I've used Pipercross and ITG and there really is very little between them.

Actually, the best pannel filter is the one that comes in a VW box, because nothing can beat the filtration qualities of OEM spec pleated paper filtration mediums.  :rolleye:
