Yeah we all know the sticker works! The question is are you getting anything like this for the filter?

I think mine arrived on the 15th, but was on Hols. Will collect from postie Monday and let you know how it compares to my K&N and Apexi Panel Filters (which may well end up on Ebay).

Thanks BAH and Simon. Mine arrived the other day and fitted it yesterday. Feels massively better than the old one which was old and cacky. Breathes alot better and as a result pulls better. Mine was mapped for a high flow filter but I've had an old std subaru one which was past its 'use by date' so maybe I got more noticeable gains as a result.

Thanks again

Bob


PS. I cant believe somebody asked how it is fitted!!!...even I could do it without instruction and I struggle to jack the car up! LOL

Does a new filter warrant an ecu reset? What's the general opinion?

I sent about 20 filters out today and will send another 10 out tomorrow. This will then leave me the last 10 orders for sending out and I will do this in the middle of the week. It really does take a lot of effort wrapping so many filters up so have spread the workload as best I can!

I would like to thank you everyone for there patience on this one!

Best regards,
Simon

Fitted mine on Sunday with no problems. The old standard filter was covered in oil on the back and a few insects.

Took it for a drive and the car pulls much better all the way to the redline.

I wasn't expecting a noticeable performance difference so I was pleasantly surprised.

Many thanks again to Simon and BAH.

Simon, understand what you say and appreciate all your efforts.

Is there anyway you can post up who you have sent to and who you havenT??

Gives us something to go on, especially if you've sent and somethings gone wrong with our local posties (it does happen!).

Just to say that my two came on Saturday FYI.
Labelled as books so I was hoping for something a bit more exotic

I'm going to run the std and STi filter back to back on Delta Dash in the next few days to spot the differences.
If anything is very favourable then I'll post it up.

Thanks for a well organised GB everyone.

Good point!

I worked downwards as per spreadsheet supplied by BAH. The following nine people have not had their filters sent but will be done this week:

1. Garycat
2. jmc1968
3. steve sti-7
4. Fangoria
5. JBL
6. HotRod
7. SiW
8. Benno
9. Diesel

Best regards,
Simon

No rush Simon, I'm out of the office for the next week so I won't be able to collect it anyway.

Cheers

I'm a paypal and got mine last Friday - its probably just the luck of the draw as to whether Simon has had a chance to wrap and post yours yet.

I thought the paypal-ers got theirs sent first... My name isn't on the "pending" list anyway.

Didn't think there'd be a week difference even taking the Royal Mail into account...

Just getting concerned as I assumed I'd be in the first batch to be sent out - which started arriving on thursday - and I don't have mine with 4 days of deliveries in between.

Any chance Simon can confirm its been dispatched? To be honest I'm not in a rush to fit as I'll be waiting until the cars been serviced next week.
