after reading the 'induction noise' thread, ive been inspired (not really, ive been wanting to install one for a long long time) but in ur experienced opinions, what are the quality buys out there on the market?

thanks

quality..probably K&N.

I (along with many others) Had a 3A racing pod filter, as it won a test from 30 pod filters for flow and filtration(K7N was 2nd) in autosalon magazine last year.. Its also a pod filter that doesnt need oiling, but can still be washed :)

i would also say Apexi, as its a paper filter, no need to oil like the K&N, which could be harmful to your AFM

K&N, BMC and Apexi.

the only three you need to know about.

actually Simota isnt to bad either, and have also heard good things about 3A.

I'm using an SAAS filter. Haven't had any issues yet and it's a dry filter which saves money on cleaning/oil kits

so would dry filters be the way to go? as far as fire hazards go?
