Thats just ridiculous to say. Sure if you run the same foam filter for years it will disintegrate. If you run a paper filter for years it will disintegrate. Uni air filters like the ones I run last a year no problem and I clean them 3 times. I have never had disintegration and they never let me down. I have never had AMM, MAF, or AFM go bad with the foam filter. I believe thats why they use them in pretty much all forms of racing, but the most impressive is motocross, baja, indy and rally. |
You may not have experienced problems, but a lot of people have. And not just in the Volvo world either.
So like I said DO NOT use FOAM filters. Why risk it. |

Parts came and installed it last night. Couldn;t be any easier, even had time to clean-up engine bay.
I have to admit, it put a smile on my face :D:D:D:D I did drive behind a WRX with a catback exhaust, nothing compares to that note but, that mod is for another day :( |
Cool...
Post a pic.... |
Will update my profile with pics soon a I have them.
Koop, While the car was "learning", what behavior should I expect ? |
I just noticed slight fluctuations in RPMs for just the first few minutes. When i used to step on the gas hard, it would hesitate for a moment, but that went away. I didn't really have any issues.
