Air filter test flow vs filtration

[dvldoc]

Some interesting info, I run the Simota power flow myself since it's easy to find at the mall and pretty cheap. The no name knock offs will probably be your worst bet when it comes to filters.

Surprised that Simota scored so high, but I guess times change. Still, interesting to see K&N is still number one in filtration... and of course, straight flow numbers don't mean very much to today's engines, where minimizing turbulence and changes to MAF readings are often more important for aftermarket air-filters. (Which is why Speedlab doesn't recommend cone types for the TDCi... too much ECU fightback).

Not surprised at all that the foam types performed so poorly. Never trusted those.

Guess I was right in buying a K&N.

But the 3A Racing is a surprise!!!

Hi, can you tell me where I can find a seller that offers a K&N airfilter at the lowest price? I'm planning to get one for my Strada.
