Title: which air filter
Post by: Dr Neil on August 15, 2005, 22:23:08

i am going to replace the air filter on my 200tdi, so what's best,fitting a standard one or does fitting something like a k&n make any difference??

can't justify buying an intercooler to get a free air filter Phil, joanne will never go for it :lol:

perhaps you're looking at it the wrong way round, what you're actually doing is buying a really good air filter and getting a free intercooler upgrade with it

just do the fuel pump tweak first - you ll get some extra performance ( and maybe a little smoke) without spending out on an intercooler.  

then tweak it more when u get an intercooler.

I went for the K&N filter
Very happy with it. Performance up a bit too.
only £32 from Paddocks.

I put a K&N filter in and didnt notice much if any difference at all.

spose if u run without a filter thats about as good as it ever gonna get with a filter mod over standard.
