Best performance air filter for .18TM/TZ
Bill,
I have the .18TM for my Revo now and am getting a TZ for racing only, what is the best air filter for performance? I'm using the stock Rvo air filter now. can I expect any real performance increase with a .21 filter?

RE: Best performance air filter for .18TM/TZ
We really don't have any performance numbers for air filters. Obviously, the largest one you can attach to the engine will have the lease resistance to drawing air. If the .21-size filter has a larger area, then it will impede airflow less than the one you're currently-using. Usually, though, lossed due to an air filter are negligible, unless the filter is much too small or very dirty. Even major power differences between engines are negated by the quality of the driver.
A good driver trumps a lesser driver every time, even if the good driver's car is slightly slower or less powerful.
