Noise Of Pod Filter

[R34TRK]

hey guys

im looking to buy a pod filter..Im after one with alot of suction noise or what u would call loud.... i was thinking blitz but i have no idea on how that sounds so not exactly sure with what brand i need.. any one with experince with these?

[Eug]

they all go 'wooosh' some go 'wooooooosh' and many go 'woowooowooosh'

you'll be inside the car listening to your music anyway, so what does it matter?

[gt-ahhh!]

i would have thought most pods styles make a loud sucking noise. my hks one certainly does.

ive been told by my xr8 ute owning friend that all he can hear behind him is this tremendous sucking noise and then a howl as i rocket past hehe

i guess that means i need to remove my muffler!

they won't be able to really hear it unless the bonnet is open anyway.

they all make the woosh suction noise, just go with any.

for the record apexi filters the best, don't know sound wise.

a search should bring up alot of discussions on pod filters/panel filters... you might even find some sound clips from memory. try that.

WOW!.. your technicalities amaze me!..

I cont say about six cylinders.. but when i had one on my pulsar.. at about 3K it sounded similar to a rex..

strange.. I know..

cool?.. you bet!

It was some cheapo brand of filter but made a considerable difference!

i have a apexi DI dual pannel forced pod filter and it gives a considerable amount of sucking noise, but what i'd call loud! i had a FORCE FLOW pod on my vp commodore and it was so loud even on idle.

it seems that price is directly proportional to volume of suction... much like my mate's mum

wrong.

When Im home next.. Autosalong mag did a filter test.. they took something like 14 filters.. from the ceapest being $15 to the top end $180 one.

Wanna know a funny fact?.. The best over all flow and filter reading came from a cheapo one..

[H@ME]

serious? there was a thread on here showing the comparisions? apexi won?

[H@ME]

http://www.mkiv.com/techarticles/filters_test/2/index.html new it was here somewhere...

suppose they do not take into account the shitter brands and some other good ones but this is why i use APEXI!

while that may be true cris, the best flow doesn't necessarily mean best filtration. that's the filter's job, if you want good flow then don't run anything at all.

for the record apexi filters the best

*ahem*

according to that comparison, apexi is the best compromise between flow and filtration.
