    Green Filter Vs K&N!!! WOW

    I have used K&N since I bought my VX and just last night popped in a Green panel filter stock replacement, and wow what a difference, I did not think it would be that noticeable but it really is! I had been thinking it just did not have enought 'umph' with the heat these days, but huge improvement by switching filters!
    Ask forgiveness, not permission.

    Ask, and ye shall get it.


    Tone offers these for $69 (for the panel filter) -a fair price as far as I can tell. I've heard good things about them.

    Naw, that is another Green filter, not THE Green VX crazy is using -
    http://greenfilterusa.com/

    Green Performance filters have a larger flow area on their panel units due to better control of the rubber around the edge (take a look at the K&N filter area around the edges) while still filtering down to 5 microns. I'm surprised she noticed the difference but I have seen the numbers and actual tests and they do flow more than the comparable K&N. Plus GREEN is MEAN.

    Sorry Tone,
    I took that link from your post here:
    http://www.vehicross.info/modules.ph...e=viewad&id=24
    Under the "green website link"

    What's the difference anyway, and which do you sell?

    I'm in need of a replacement, do you have any (panels) in stock?

    Oops, thanks for catching that - sent a note to Scott to correct. Same filter, other link is UK site http://greenfilterusa.com/ - I can get you a filter in about a week when you are ready. Their cone filters are also excelent as they have filter area in the ends of the filter which are usually just solid in other cones. Let me know if I need to send you a paypal invoice since they are not on my site yet.

    How does one clean and maintain the green filters Tone, if your filter is as good as the other, I'd just assume buy from you.
    From Unimog to VX - a serious change in velocity - a small sacrifice in voracity.

    The Green IS better than the K&N. Recharge is the same as for K&N, Green offers their own cleaner and oil kit for about $15.

    Twister works great with most all of the SC intakes out there. I have given up on the CF tube from TomMotorsport.com - he says he has samples ready to send to me but after talking to him several times a month for 6+ months, he can not deliver. Dominik is bringing back CF tubing samples for me that are probably cheaper and I should see those next month. I hate how this is dragging on - it is so simple.
