Just picked my TT's nose, and it breathes a lot better....
Just replaced filter with after market panel filter and the car revs quicker. Next is the colonoscopy and we'll see how the K04 likes free breathing and exit. I'm very surprised with a perceptible difference in throttle response with such a simple mod.

BMC. $110 procured in Germany by a friend. 159/01 part#. How come you guys...
don't use this filter? Is there a U.S. source for it? I tried to get links to U.S. source a couple weeks ago, but nothing came back. This filter is used as stock install in many supercars.

I put them in my Boxsters and my 911, Some guy MMD coordinated a group purchase...
on the Boxster Board. I guess the fitration rate is 2 microns compared to 5 microns of the K&N. The BMC is supposed to have a higher flow rate(99 1/4%) as well, but it is still cotton pressed in metal mesh. This filter comes stock from the factory in all GT3's and Porsche is more **** about their cars than Audi. I figure it is the best. Since they're made in Italy, they come in many Ferrari's and Lambo's as well. I think they even come in McClaren F1's.
