twofourten 0 Posted March 29, 2010 I'm looking at a kit for G60 and have been informed that cotton filters are best for supercharged engines therefore I'm looking at a Green induction kit. My problem is that they do 2 types: Single Cone costing approx. £70 & giving 2-4 BHP increase or Dynatwist System (XL) costing approx. £214 & giving 6-8 BHP increase Has anyone fitted either of these & does anyone know if the vastly more expensive Dynatwist system is worth the extra cash?

Critical_Mass 10 Posted March 29, 2010 Paper filters are said to be better for G60s as they trap smaller particles. Where as cotton filters allow smaller particles through and into your SC :? Sorry had no experience with either of those filters. But you can get a single cone filter with a heat shield. G-werks may sell them. Sorry i cant help more.

twofourten 0 Posted March 29, 2010 Thanks Critical_Mass... G-Werks use the BBM Howitzer Intake kit (£122 ish) I think - does anyone know if these are good? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

twofourten 0 Posted March 30, 2010 That does look great, but a little pricy maybe... Green, Jetex, Pipercross, Powertec, K&N - I'm well confused now... I can see info on VR6 & 20v threads, but nothing for G60 - a little help please someone? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Richardshoes 0 Posted March 30, 2010 There's a topic on the vortex where a dude has dynoed (supposedly) the car using different induction kits. The best one was SWG twin cone. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted March 30, 2010 Paper filters are said to be better for G60s as they trap smaller particles. Where as cotton filters allow smaller particles through and into your SC :? Yep. You only have to hold a cotton filter up to a light to see that :D I've used every filter imaginable on my VR6 T and the best so far is the stock airbox with paper filter. I'd get that SWG twin cone thing, with paper filter, if I had a G60. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davidwort 0 Posted March 30, 2010 yep, and less filtration means a nice grinding paste when it mixes with oil in the charger, not what you want. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
law262 0 Posted March 30, 2010 I wouldn't use anything other than a paper Mann or VAG filter in the standard air box! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted March 30, 2010 Have to say, I've only ever heard the same for the G60... the original paper filter is the best / safest. Sure you lose out in terms of NOISE but to be honest it's a small price to pay to save your G-Lader... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
twofourten 0 Posted March 30, 2010 BRILLIANT - Thanks very much for he input guys, it's a great help & really appreciated... I have opted for a BBM Howitzer Intake System w/adapter for stock G60 chargers at the moment due to price & time restraints, but if more contract work comes through i'll do the SWG option Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
