Hey everyone....

check out this link to ebay....I know the info is long to read but I think it might be the answer to or another question....lol to the on going debate of air filters for our cars....I have sermized that the oem mann is probably the best b/c it wont kill the MAF and it actually flows better clean than the K N or others, but this one caught my attention...let me know what you guys think...I was thinkin about gettin it to try out

RAM FILTER

Gobble Gobble...Happy Turkey Day...GO Lions

No way, doesn't have me convinced. Something about using foam media to trap tiny particles that scares me.

 

go pats happy thanksgiving

 

Actually foam filters work really well and flow very well the only drawback is that they are expensive

 

So no problems with killin the maf?

Im just weary about anything other than stock oem paper cause all that Ive read from the forums

Foam may be better but that one for $15 looks pretty shitty the pores are huge

 

But foam filters still need to be oiled, just like gauze filters.

it is over oiling that kills MAF. Just go with OEM Mann filters.

 

Even if you did put that foam filter in there, you would notice NO, I repeat NO HP gains. So what's the point?

 

Hope everyone had a good turkey day....except the lions getting shaved It was a good holiday

Thanks for the info on the filter Im goin stock Mann...mines gotta be soo dirty drivin in LA lots a dust and smog

BTW

Today I rolled my rear windows down (first time in a while) and the left rear wont go back up....the motor sounds cool but it sounds like a loose chain juggling in my door...any input?? regulator?? any instructions on getting the door off and if so how can I tell whats broken if anything

thanks

That filter looks similar to what Amsoil uses, except Amsoil doesnt make one for the 1.8t. I would be curious what the micron filter rating is of this one.
I have been using the Amsoil one in my wifes car for about 5yrs now, it works great.
