Any links for inline filter? The OEM filter is just a screen, catching larger particles it seems. Not sure if adding a filter will make the pump work much harder. |
I added this filter to the return line shortly after installing my BW reservoir.
I wanted to fabricate a proper mount for it, but it's a pretty large filter and I couldn't find a clever location to bolt a mount to.
The case of the filter is really stout though, so I just nestled it in a tight place underneath the reservoir.
Been on the car for well over 15,000 miles (and 8 track days).
No mechanical issues, but after installing the BW (Moroso) reservoir, the pump was slightly louder when cranking the wheel while parking.
Not louder than my Ford Expedition, just louder than it was before.
Adding the filter didn't make the sound any louder though.
