I know there ican be a difference in price but what about when in use?

Sound, performance, reliability etc

Have got the idea that Green Pannel filter is quite popular?
 
Use the search function mate.....there's LOOOAAAADS of threads about this already!

But i think you'll find half saying panel filter, and half saying open cone. In the end i went for a pipercross panel filter, but often think about changing. :confused:
 
The thing that put me off an induction kit was the fact that the filter would soak up all the heat coming from the engine. The jabba induction kit could be worth looking at though as it comes with a heat shield and completely boxes the filter in. And it looks pretty cool aswell.

Not if you put it behind the bumper like mine ;)

I've got both a green panel filter and a open cone and I personally prefer the open cone.....but thats just my opinion.

Thats where my mates located his induction on the lower bumper in his 206 GTI 180.

Adam what rims are they in your sig, they look awsome :funk:
 
Cheers there 8.5x18 RS6 reps with 5mm spacers.

Here's my filter...don't think its going to suffer from heat soak

I would have to agrre with that. Friend of mine has them with spacers on a golf but they look so good on the leon.

What colour blue is the car?
 
Oh, i was looking at a set of RS6 but for some reason they look different on yours, maybe cause there black. Iam considering getting a set and getting them done in white...............sorry OP for going off topic.

I thought about doing mine white but ended up black.......I think white on black would look really good especially the RS6's



Back on track........I'd say open cone if you want to hear the DV and have a very good feed or panel filter for a more stealth approach but I'd still uprate the air feed.

Have not seen many facelift in that colour.

Black rims look good with it :)

Facelifts don't come in imperial blue :)
