Hello, I have a b18c4 turbo with internal stock, manifold racetech and TD05-20g turbo.
What air filter do you recommend?

Thanks
 
K&N Cone filter?

Just measure the diameter of the turbo inlet buy one that fits.

Some people will rant and rave saying its bad etc and some people will say its fine! I don't drive my car on shitty dusty roads and it cant suck objects like flys/leaves in etc because it still has the gauze over it, it sounds mental :)
 
Get a new K&N filter, they are the best and most used when it comes to turbo airfilters.
 
As long as its not a oil type filter than pretty much any paper type is good.
oil filters tend to leave oily residue on the turbo fins, which i dont like, so went to a paper type filter.

HKS mushroom = fail of filter, only buy it for the name sake and the induction noise haha

Still a big fan of the Apexi design... dont quite believe the hype of the illustration but the addition of a built in velocity stack is really nice!

As with DV8, i like the Apexi design as well.
Changed my old Top Fuel filter for an Apexi one, great noise and seemed to create a good suction of air.

Just bought another one to use on my turbo.
