vr6highline28 0 Posted September 11, 2005 Report Share Posted September 11, 2005 ..... just fitted one of these today .... does this genuinely add to the performance of a standard VR6 'AAA' engine ? went out for a spin this afternoon and it seemed to pull better but that was probably down to my imagination !! ?? !! ??

antera309 3 Posted September 12, 2005 Report Share Posted September 12, 2005 I've been told that fitting one of these and removing the "trumpet" from inside the airbox will give a power increase.I've done these mods on mine. I can't verify the power claims with RR figures, but it definitely felt more responsive and sounds a lot better. Link to post Share on other sites
pinto 0 Posted September 12, 2005 Report Share Posted September 12, 2005 I got round to fitting a cone filter to mine this weekend, and can deffinately say the response is a lot better but...

TVR6 0 Posted September 12, 2005 Report Share Posted September 12, 2005 Probably the first filter change it's had in years Seriously, I have one in mine and it does make an improvement and increases the sound slightly. I had the car serviced recently and the cost of the standard paper element was included so I asked for it to be fitted. It felt less resposnive than before, refitted the K&N and voila, better sound and more responsive Link to post Share on other sites
