Pannel Vs Cone filter?

Post by quin@techtonics.co.nz »

Hey all,

I'm just about to buy an air filter for the RS and am between a K&N
pannel filter in the stock airbox (I'd remove the silencer box in the
front arch and get some larger feeding pipe to flow into the box) or
a Cone Type filter (I was looking at the Simota) both are failry
comparable in price. arround $140 NZ for the K&N and $160 for the
simota.

So what are peoples sugestions. I'll have a Group N front down pipe
soon, have a new performance rear muffler going on soon as well. Will
also be looking to setup a manual boost control. So which would suit
my needs?

Thanks in advance for your advice.

Quin

You'll be able to get more out of the cone filter then the panel filter.
They usually flow more which leads to better tuning capabilities; another
bonus (depeneding on how you look at it) is the sound that it makes at wide
open throttle, very loud in comparison to the in-box filter..

Whatever you choose, it's still better then the factory paper element. good
luck!
