ITG panel filter

[s4029768]

Hey guys

So I just installed my ITG panel filter. The Fitment was very good. The renforced form outside has moulded to the shap of the airbox perfectly.

In terms of performance, sligtly more pull in the low end and I seem to be able to cruise in 6th gear a little better than before. The standard filter had only done around 5000 km so was fairly new.

The engine seems to have gotten a little quieter as well. In terms of fuel consumption...I just filled up yesterday so will let you guys know once I re fill sometime next week.


Overall the product is manufactured with quality in mind, very well made, the oiling was just right straight off the packaging.

I will be trying out the Hiclone system soon. They have 30day money back gurantee so gona try it. will let you guys know how it is as well

Hiclone is a waste of money. Make sure it doesn't fall apart and get sucked into the cylinders.

I got a K&N panel filter replacement for mine about 2 months ago. honestly havent noticed much an improvement in performance unfortunatly, maybe a little low end pull as you mentioned. Economy is better - suprisingly! but i mostly got it beacause of the fact you never have to replace it. A one off $90 purchase (from ebay - dont get your local auto shop to order, they tried to charge me $200 cos it was rare...) and you never have to replace it again so savings there
How much was your ITG?

hmmm thats a good point....might give it a miss then...

Anyways...the filter seems aiight. Might look at Comptech Ice box down the track they use the OEM bottom airbox tray right??

Yes, it uses the stock bottom part of the airbox. You will have to remove the resonator which sits in the front passenger side bumper.

if you use itg, do you have to weatherseal the box like the k&n?
