i have now got rid of that sorry excuse of a t04 and have bought a nice sized beasty for my street port the question is how do you use a filter if at all the inlet is massive and much bigger that my old hks mushroom . have seen mesh being used is this safe ? or can i use something else space is also a problem :Typing
I bought a universal K&N style filter for my Turbonetics 62-1 turbo. It has a 4" intake.
I wouldn\'t be happy running just mesh as it only stops large object, just think what damage sand and grit can do to your turbo let alone your rotor housings.

I run a 4 inlet HKS Filter on my T04R, I suppose the question what do you use if go like GT42 with a 5 inch inlet, Seen K&N and ITG filters being used on those big buggers
If you go on the US K&N site you will find zillions of different size configurations
Merlin motorsport is your friend. ITG is one of the best in the market in my opinion. This set up with the tube, 2 clamps and ITG 99mm inlet filter cost £100ish delivered and its good for 520 horse powers

its a little bigger lol
I\'ve used and will continue to use mesh on race car turbo inlets, but there\'s far less rubbish flying around at race tracks than say the M25. Fine grit and sand are your biggest enemy. Nature\'s grinding paste...
