Cosworth drop in air filter - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

JoeBoxer · 08-11-2012, 03:07 PM

Anybody used their filters before? Its a basic non-oiled panel filter for $55 shipped on ebay. I am not affiliated with this company in any way not trying to advertise just wanted to know if anybody has used them before.

I'm thinking about picking it up to try, i'm waiting on an intake for a couple reasons mostly to see what Perrin has coming and also the possibility of forced induction which Don is doing a great job tempting me with.

So what is the difference between the Cosworth one and stock?

JoeBoxer · 08-13-2012, 05:36 PM

I got it ordered, should be in late this week and i will let you know.

FWIW

Cosworth doesn't list an airfilter on their site for FRs/BRz/86

I know others are interchangeable...so you may want to verify you aren't paying an 86 tax...just saying

***I had heard that the matrix filter interchanges, a quick search shows the matrix cosworth filter available for $10 cheaper or ~20% ***

**note no PN is listed for this filter in their listing**

Oh well too late now i'm not expecting anything really just wanted to try it out.

empower-auto · 08-13-2012, 06:26 PM

Why pay more when the Apexi one exists?

JoeBoxer · 08-15-2012, 07:21 PM

Installed this today at lunch, it was kind of a pain to get it in there properly but now that its in I am happy with the purchase. I am trying to enhance performance, handling, and looks so I tried to get the most gains for my dollar. Between this, the Perrin pulley, Motiv test pipe, and Visconti tune i think I will be happy for a while.

empower-auto · 08-15-2012, 07:50 PM

is that motiv piece only available through enjuku?

You can get it direct but i'm pretty sure its cheaper through enjuku and i thought i saw something about free shipping. don't quote me on that though.

I'm in Canada so it's a bum deal for me.

I'll wait until a brand I carry releases something. AP is currently my top pick.

A Cosworth drop in engine is a far tastier thought than a panel airfilter
