just dropped in a pair of BMC filters

Niiiiiiice. the induction roar is more of a "roar" now. I don't think i have any more noticeable HP or TQ (butt dyno) but it feels more responsive on and off throttle.

Just clocked the first 2000 Kms in the beastie so i'll be dropping popping in to the MB service centre for a quick change oil and filter.

peace..

What price did you pay? K&N are 100$ a pair and provide some decent gains too so this might be an option.

Thanks.
