K&N Induction Kit VS K&N Panel Filter

Post by PhilGTi »

Which is better out of these two? Can't say i know anything about them. Im more interested in performance/smoothness of the results over how loud it makes the car.

Can anyone explain what both will do? How much are each of them. Its for a 2001 6N2 Polo 1.4 8V.

Cheers, Phill.

I'm no expert, but I believe that the cone filter would be best, as long as it has a good cold air feed and maybe a heat shield (depending on where you mount it in the engine bay)
Of course, the panel filter will be a lot cheaper and easier to fit!

Try doing a search, I think people have discussed this topic a few times.

Ordered the K&N Induction kit today, only £55.99 so who gives a s**t if its not all that good? Also ordered some sound deadening for the engine bay, sounds silly i know but it will reduce all the rattles and road noise and leave the exhaust/induction note.
