    Here we go.....Mr XR5 says his car is faster than a MPS if he mods it.....very intelligent.

    Hmmm, lucky TG is on the road, else he would be here claiming the 2 is a hotter hatch

    However back on topic, Thanks AD07 for the link, was good reading regardless of who sponsored it. Does anyone know how the AFE filters perform? I have one which came with the CPE CAI, it seems to function how it's supposed to, but I haven't checked/cleaned the MAF since I put it in so hopefully it's filtering all the bad stuff!

    Guys please take the bickering to MSF. While I may not be 100% convinced of the accuracy of the article or any article for that matter, it was informative and at the very least give you something to think about. I don't think you can flaw the data provided on flow rates and it doesn't suprise me that some of the more expensive brands aren't always the best. At least for me it has reinforced my decision to go with dry cotton filters, rather than foam or oiled.

    This thread has gotten way out there..... maybe my fault.... I don't know.

    Firstly, I never said there was anything wrong with the posted article, in fact I copied it and posted it in another forum (with a disclaimer about who commissioned the review and the overall result). My only point about the article was to back-up Nuliaj's point of not believing everything you read, and questioning AD07's agitated response to Nuliaj....

    Secondly, I knew when I posted the example about XR5 being reviewed that I would get some knee-jerk reactions. Unfortunately, you came up with the same old chestnut. Power. We all know the MPS has more power out of the box. I have said it a few times on this site that the MPS has set the bench mark by which all FWD Hot Hatches will be measured, but come on guys, if your going to bag out the XR5, at least look beyond footrests and cruise control. Personally, I think AD07 is a bit of a tool, but at least he come up with one good response. The lack of LSD in the XR5 is a significant fault with the overall package, but I could also list a couple others. I mentioned the Flash power increase because the XR5 is about $4K less than the MPS and it is a very common initial upgrade. A few Ford Dealers now offer it as an option. My point was that it only took 4 minutes to upgrade the XR5 to trump your beloved power advantage..... Personally I think the MPS has many more advantages above the power advantage.

    Lastly, I don't like being told to get off this site, especially when being told by an owner member that hasn't even bothered to support HIS site by cracking out his wallet..... I was personally invited here, I have paid my membership fee, and I am a fan of the MPS. I have given out about 20 cards referring MPS owner to this site. I even owned a 07 SP23 Luxury before the second XR5.

    Anyway, I'm out of here for a while. Bit of a self imposed holiday. Sorry to anyone that I have upset. I don't know why I let myself get dragged into this.

    Guys please keep this thread on the original topic, if you want to sledge each other then do it elsewhere.
    Thanks

    Sorry Chris , i was watching "Knocked Up" again today. It was one of the many great lines in the movie & i also thought it was a fair rebuttal after i was referred to as a tool.
    Feel free to delete the crap if you wish....but it does make for some entertaining reading......

    Im pretty sure anyone who knows their product is good will sanction a test and no doubt pass with dlying colours....im just glad my CAI has a K&N filter, but ive never been dumb enough to buy cheap foam sh}t anyway. Surprising that some cotton gauze filters are just as bad

    Funny read..........

    Ad07, u sir must have a problem with your car.....my xr5 has 4 wheels that spin.

    Why do you need a foot rest when to drive rapid, your left foot should only rest when moving from brake to clutch???!?!

    Cruise control drones bad on any car with an exhaust so meh! ..... but you probably havent bought an aftermarket exhaust as you keep going on about how good stock for stock it is........
