Here comes yet another performance improvement part for my beloved Type R! An AIR FILTER !!
A newly released, highly acclaimed MaxFlow filter by J's Racing arrived yesterday in the mail.
I was ready to fit it in on the day but I thought why don't I just go to Autobacs and have my car dynoed, then replace the stock filter with MaxFlow and have it dynoed again !
So stay tuned for some dyno results of before/after (hopefully there is an improvement there somewhere !!)
Here it is installed !
Hi Rod - did you notice any difference using this filter?
ReplyDeleteCheers. Dave
If there is any I haven't been able to quantify it. But on dyno it shows a 2kw increase before and after
ReplyDeleteCan this filter be cleaned? If not, how long is it expect to last?
ReplyDeleteyes it can be cleaned
ReplyDeleteit will last at least 1-2 years in a non dusty environment
Do you plan to stick with the standard airbox or do you sometime in the future plan to get something like the J's racing intake kit?

ReplyDeletedefinitely staying with the standard box! Js racing unit looks nice and is light but you won't gain much power from it unless you change how the air reaches your intake which means bonnet and bumper upgrade required. not worth the money for a negligible power gain.
