i always see most singles w/o an airfilter on the turbo. just wondering. kvn

 

Use a filter..

 

want your engine to last?
use a filter for daily driving
make sure you buy a GOOD one
cheap ones can collapse with the intense vacuum
of the turbo.........

Track? then yes take it out then

I'm sure Im going read
"I've run for a couple of years with just a screen"

Ok open the engine
you'll see

 

thanks for the link. didn't come up when i did a search. i was told my greddy filter that came with the t78 is a pos. where can i get a k&N filter that will fit the greddy turbo. kevin

 

I recommend you to go with the Vibrant Performance filter, it seems like they are made with silicone flanges, that can handle the intense heat.. My K&N filter just cracked and was no good to me. But my Vibrant filter is great!!

A K&N lasted about 500 miles on my R85 mounted directly to it. The heat took the strength out of the rubber and caused it to rip. I bought a Samco coupler to attach to the compressor housing and then put a 2" stainless pipe in there to mount the filter to it, now I don't have any problems.

That's exacly what I'm talking about.. With the Vibrant Performance filter you can just mount it directly to the compressor housing with no risk of cracking or melting rubber.. I dismounted my Vibrant coupple of days ago, and it was just as ine as the day I got it
I'm more than satisfied..

 

what about with a gt42r it has a 5in inlet hard to find filters for it.

 

You could always get a coupling reducer and just use a 4.5" or 4" filter.

 

Deffo use a filter, for car shows you can drive there with the filter on, then remove once there, remembering to place back on though
