K&n pod filter put in... roars like a Wrx!
« on: Nov 27, 2003, 03:05PM »
I stuck in a K&N pod filter the other day, got it 4 79 bucks from Autobahn elizabeth. Iv left the original box in place like most other people have done on here and the noise this thing makes is amazing. My frends who were there when we first fired her up were a bit dissapointed at the results we got while she was idling and on only very light throttle.. as soon as u inject the juice into the chambers however the noise that comes from her is unbelievable!!! everyone rekns it sounds like a wrx with an exhaust!. Iv got a bit more power but nothinjg amazing and so far i can c no difference in fuel economy mainly because im driving it flat footed everywhere just 2 hear the roar!.

All up with the adapter plate it cos me about 110 bucks, a well wicked upgrade 4 the cash!

yeah I get that with my Simota - changes the engine noise quite markedly!!

I didn't notice a massive increase in power either - my fuel econ. went up slightly better though, and yeah there's the noise.

I love putting along in four really slowly and putting the foot to the floor.  All you car hear is the WRX sound from the pod!  Best investment hey!!!
