Green are exactly the same as K&N, but with green gauze instead...

BMC CDA is exactly the same as a K&N, but with a carbon heatshield...

end of the day, its your choice!

COTTON AIR FILTERS CLOG UP VERY QUICKLY IMO,BETTER OFF WITH A FOAM AIR FILTER

and every time u service your car, give it a quick clean

foam does not clog as quickly as cotton...and the oil in some cleaning kits causes the airflow sensor to stop working (Â£280 from vaux) so i wouldnt advise spraying loads of the oil on them

ok mate

can honestly say i have only used cotton filters so wouldnt know the advanages of foam

i got a piperx on at the minute and its foam, desperatly needs cleaning, its not sucking enough air in, actually that might be the reason why my engine management light keeps coming on for??!!
