You notice a different sound with a pod filter, but I reckon you'd need to be flowing alot of air for the filter to make a difference performance wise. My wagon needed a new filter when I bought it so I got a Simota panel filter from BNT, cost me $35 I think with discount Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

No havn't done it yet I've got to get a spare tailgate so I can mod it the way I want. I'm tossing up the idea of taking SIKVLT off the road for a year and do alot to the body but it's hard cuz I really like driving it Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
