Looking to get a blow-off valve and filter for my Polo GTI, any advice???
Thought as much - that's why I ran a AEM DryFlow pod on my Mazda3. Funny thing is Green Cotton don't list the GTI, only the 1.9 TDI. Although according to the BMC filters website they both take the same filter...
If you know they are the same dimesions then it'll fit no problems. VAG only have about half a dozen different air filters, to cover nearly every car they built in the last 20 years.
My ETKA doesn't go new enough to look the OE numbers up.
I use the Forge FMCL007P Closed Loop Diverter valve with a K&N filter ... and wouldn't use anything else. Both together and using a Forge TIP and the Seat intake have added a whole new dimension of smooth / crisp acceleration to my Pog.
hey all,
i'm looking to get a BOV and flat bed filter for my car. i haven't actually looked to see if it already has an aftermarket filter, and after my yesterdays disovery of an APR chip, it probably has a filter already.
But any advice on what types of BOV's and types of flat bed filters (pref. K&N) would be much appreciated....or even if to stay away from BOV's, its your court, let me know.
Cheers to you all my new found fellow dubbers!!
i have a bmc replacemnet panel air filter installed. not a problem as yet. the only probelm with the oiled filters is if there is too much air on them. i have run oiled filters most of my vehicles and i haven't had a problem with them.
sorry i might sound like a complete retard but what is a forge TIP
Turbo Intake pipe (The tube that runs from just after your airbox down to your turbo)
Re K&N filters - They sound louder (because of the air rushing past the metal grating) - But they don't flow any better than the standard filter IMO (And in Sebs opinion)
Also - They are oiled so they will **** with your MAF (It won't die straight away but it will die ****load quicker and they aren't cheap to replace)

bmc are sold through autobahn on the east coast.
woops that should be too much air on the material will gunge up a map sensor. it is only a light spray that is required. if dripping off, too much
