Default All Greddy TT owners perfect K&N filter replacement part #

hey guys i found the perfect K&N filter to replace the stock Greddy units. These are great filters and fit perfectly in the engine bay. Heres the link http://store.knfilters.com/search/pr...x?Prod=RU-3390
Dont risk getting your turbos filthy with the stock greddy filters.

that one may fit perfectly, but it doesn't offer alot surface area and could be a restriction. even though, it is similar in size to the greddy mushrooms, those mushrooms will outflow that filter by a large margin. WHat does K&N say as far the airflow/HP maximum for those filters.


i went with these on my setup, but I also moved the filter locations via some additional piping. it is hard to tell from the pictures, but these filters are just as wide (base diameter) as those shorties in the pic above. the shorties have a 5.8XX" Diameter, while these have a 6" base diameter. :



If you don't mind altering the pipes, you can get some good sized filters in there.

Im not sure what they flow so i cant compare them to the greddy. I will have to email K&N. The ones you got look good i just wanted to keep the stock filter location with no additional modifications. I have not noticed any kind of air restriction the car seems to preform exactly the same except my turbos are much cleaner.

I havent driven this $hit box in well over 2 months now.

FYI the drivers side pipe had to be cut some to fit. Well worth it IMO
