ADZ_VR6 0 Posted December 13, 2007 Just looking at filters for the VR, Just wondering if anyones tried one off these, are they really worth £230. They look good but is it just a gimmick? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Bowen 1 Posted December 13, 2007 i looked into one, i know someone who can get me one at a decent price, but didn't seem like anyone really knew about them at the time so haven't bothered. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ADZ_VR6 0 Posted December 13, 2007 I just want to no what exactly u get for the high price really, there's other encased filters and do they really make that much difference. i no it cuts out hot air but how much is that really worth? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crasher 3 Posted December 14, 2007 A few years ago, we took a Golf VR6 down to Superchips rolling road with James from Pipercross to do some tests with the then new Viper VR6 kit. We ran the car on a paper element and it gave 170BHP and then with a K&N panel filter with which it made 174BHP. I then fitted the Viper kit, which wasn't easy as there isn't enough room behind the headlight, and when run up, it made 157BHP-result! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim 2 Posted December 14, 2007 If I was buying an air filter for my Corrado, the BMC is where i'd put my money personally! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
