I've heard conflicting views on application for the red cone type intake made by Apexi. Does anyone know if it fits the na series 5? Sometimes I hear it's only for the turbo, and more specifically only for series 5 TII's, ie. it won't fit any series 4 car turbo or na. The Apexi website lists 89-91's but doesn't allude to either turbo or na. No mention is made for a series 4 app. Thanks for your insight.

 

YES. But you're paying too much for a filter tho.... just buy a K&N, and use the extra cash for some PR 5/6th port sleeves and replacement gaskets for installing them.

 

You can buy just the filter of the Apexi intake for like $60.

 

reeeeeeally? Do tell where? In an "independant test" it out-performed the K&N, and is mainentance free.

 

Pick your place to buy.

Still haven't found the one where its $60-something...

 

People who give this response have never seen the FC kit. It won't work.

I had this filter on a car I sold. It does not mount over the AFM. You need to have the whole kit as the kit supplies brackets that hold the filter in a pressure fit to the AFM. Don't throw out your old rubber gasket on the AFM, you'll need it.

It's a good filter and much more of a "finished" product than a ghetto K&N fix that everybody talks about.

 

yep, he would be talking about... my car now! hehehe, hey joe, they said that the plates are urs... as soon as i get it smogged, i gotta put on new plates and give u back ur old ones...
