umm try a search pretty sure theres a hardcore thread somewhere with very detailed explanations in the end restriction is money!

k&n

Fto's have an internal filter system inside the intake manifold, there is no actual need for an airfilter, it has been shown to have around 10kw gain on running no secondary filter aka air filter located inside the stock box.

ACCCTUALLY Matt, ive seen dyno sheets that proves its from 9-13kw gain, but thats after you remove the pipe from the airbox to the tb so more air can get into the tb without having to go through a long maze of pipes

LOL



and did taz just say what matt did ?:S

Call me a skeptic, but I'd rather keep my filter attached than believe this internal filter stuff. If there is an internal filter, how do you change out the filtration material? Crud has to get stopped somewhere to be a filter which means it must be cleaned/replaced.

Someone is a serious Sally

With pods, more exposure to the outside element, the better(front bar set up). Heat soak is one of pods downside.
Shielding from water puddle and the police is to take into consideration.
My 2 cent.
Hehehe.

Dude but it doesnt matter, its already got an internal filter, ive seen so many ftos running no intake pipe and there getting great gains.
Haa just cbf taking mine off im just too busy, reccommended for anyone i reckon.

Yeah? I'm currently using panty hose for the last 3 days, the look you get at the check out must be taken into consideration.
Godzilla got nothing on me!

For anyone out there not familiar with the idiots posting above THERE IS NO INTERNAL AIR FILTER ON THE FTO. DO NOT REMOVE YOUR AIR FILTER. AND DON'T LISTEN TO THESE MORONS

Seriously someone will read these posts and believe you and end up with a fucked engine which you lot will think is real funny but which is not going to reflect well on the club now is it
