Featured Replies

Hi,

right, i have eibach's and i have the udder mod, i'm not looking at making my car hit 500mph!! :confused: or anything stupid, so chip is not on the list, but i am thiniking about the PD160 intake, is the difference really noticable?? all i want to do is make my car an fun car to drive, hence the suspesnsion and udders.

any help would be much appreciated..

It does seem to allow the car to rev more freely - I would, for the meagre £35 outlay.

that's what i was thinking, but i thought i'd ask first..

Ta

pd160 intake with green filter can give up to 10 more bhp on a custom remap.

that's the thing though, i don't want to re-map, so is it worth it on a standard car/engine??:confused:

probably just as well, can help with reduction of smoke a little too,

so it will reduce the amout of smoke being chucked out the back, have noticed that recently!!

i know it's only

It's not £40 it's £35 inc VAT - So that's £5 worth of fuel you can buy.

if you get discount it might be £35 but with no discount i paid £39 , but its still worth it

I bought one this week for someone and i'm sure it was £35 without any discount. I'll see if I still have the invoice.

Go for it :thumbup: I have eibach's, green filter & 160 intake and the engine did seem to rev easier and more importantly, the average mpg also went up :D I did this initially as I am going in for a remap in the next week or so but there is a definate benefit to having these done even without a remap in mind :thumbup:

That'll be the Eibachs then :confused: :P

Ive found- at higher revs the engine doesn't seem to die off as much as it used to with those things fitted.

Out of curiosity, i Have the PD160 air intake but no green panel filter would this make a difference when getting the remap?

I'd originally have thought that i'd be best getting the filter before hand.

On the other hand it is not a custom remap on a rolling road but it is done to your specification.

Can anyone help?

And yes,the engine does seem to rev more freely at the top end but this could be a placebo effect.

Just stick a new paper filter in. They filter dirt out way bettter and the performance difference is negligable.

if you get discount it might be £35 but with no discount i paid £39 , but its still worth it

Looks like you've been robbed. :P

Yeah looks like there was 10% - Surprised me as I didn't ask for it.

That's an interesting conclusion - out of interest, do you have any evidence that supports that? :D

Apexi filters are disposable and effectively made of paper (Apexi refers to the filter material as a layer of dry density fibres :rolleyes: ).

That'll be the Eibachs then :confused: :P

.

*cough* errr.... yeah it would :rolleyes:
