I think i know the answer to this but can i put a different air filter on my low boost??

I have a bmc cda knocking about from before i went charged and i really miss the roar it made. Can i put it on rather than the k&n one that come's with the kit or would the charger suck it to bits and blow it's self up??Dunno

You can use a different filter. Yes

The bmc's are rated for air flow so I'd say you would want a bigger one than would usually be on a 6 to not end up strangling the engine on a charged one.

I know when I first bought my v6 it had a 2000cc size one and the difference when I changed it was very noticeable.

Yeah, Ryan has a good point here.

Changing it is fine, but make sure you don't reduce the air-flow availability in doing so.
