Eug Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 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! Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 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!

Eug Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 well i wanna give the people out side it some fing to listen too.. thanks for the demonstrations tho woooooosshhhhh 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.

H@ME Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 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.

Eug Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 it seems that price is directly proportional to volume of suction... much like my mate's mum Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/193696-noise-of-pod-filter/#findComment-3475584 Share on other sites More sharing options...

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..

Eug Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 Wanna know a funny fact?.. The best over all flow and filter reading came from a cheapo one.. 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. serious? there was a thread on here showing the comparisions? apexi won? for the record apexi filters the best *ahem* according to that comparison, apexi is the best compromise between flow and filtration.
