Hello all

Next week ill be ordering a VCM OTR MAF version and fitting it all up myself with no tune

Just wanting to see what people have experienced with them

Did you notice much increase in power, better economy ect, and how is the induction noise on them?

All ive read is good reviews on it, cant wait! :D

Thanks, any info will be appreciated :)

Hi wogboyz u will be happy with it just make sure you clean ur filter often u do get alot of dirt and bugs trapped due to it suckin air from the front
Noise wise get a nice induction noise not over the top just right
Power increase i think it was about 15 or thereabouts but getting it tunned makes the world of difference i keeped the maf with the tune and recommend it when u have some coin or after u do other mods
Cheers

Thanks for ur reply mate, how easy are they to clean? I will be going mafless later on down the track once i get headers n cats :)

Speaking to the vcm lads they reakon around 10 - 15rkw increase untuned on stock motor, not sure i belive that tho lol

Yeah standard it has a bit of nice whistle, can imagine it should be pretty good with the otr on

It's the same to clean as any other K&N filter - the only hassle is the drying time - don't plan to be anywhere in a hurry - but it's easy to do.

Oh i meant not cleaning time lol, I used to clean my k&n pod on my vs every month or so thats no problem, I meant is it pretty straight forward getting the filter in and out?
