Green Filter Group Buy

So I heard a ton of stuff during the SCCA Runoffs about the green filter. Mostly about how it was the one filter that actually helped increase HP. The Elise uses the one for the Toyota Matrix. The MSRP for the one fitting the Elise airbox is $71.09. Any interest in a group buy? If so I'll start working on one.

I'd possibly be interested for the right price (although the thought of changing my filter again gives me a headache).

It is the unit in my car after we dyno tested it. Talk to Robert, I think he sells the green filter.

Me too.

Is the filter washable? I bet you could get at least 10 people signed up.

Randy: What did the dyno show? Was it +1-2 hp or something more radical like +5-8?

My understanding is that it is washable much like K&N.

Darn. I ordered one yesterday direct. Robert, sorry -- I didn't know that you were selling them.

Greens are amazing; +1 here unless Robert confirms he's got them.

I've got another batch on order, but I'm happy to do a group buy for you guys on them as well.
Let me know how many and we'll see how good a price we can get.

+1 here, if we don't have to worry about CEL lights on the dash.
