Just wondering about this subject of which filter is really better. I personaly preffer to use K&N but my car came with the HKS an i dont know if i should change it or not. Wondering about everyone here's opinion.

i have a k&n but the hks seem to be just as good

k&n is easier to clean, but takes up more room. HKS also drys up and crumbs get sucked back into your intake.

i'd go with an K&N over the hks

but i've heard really good things about the apexi filter

any opinion on which one gives more power?

I think they both are quite effective however remember it is all about usable air filter surface area I still stand behind the K&N and always will but I have used the Apexi, blitz and hks filters and they are fine

yeah well me personally i have always used K&N but like i said my car came with the HKS i was about to change it an some frieds told me that it was a high performace reuseable air filter so i didnt change it but i'm still really thinkin about it cause i'm an original K&N person. I have had amazin results from K&N an im still unsure about this HKS thing

I have the HKS and had no problems for the last 4 years, When it get dirty I just replace it for $25 every year.

HKS is the worst one there

yeah thanks mazdadude that really put it in the view i was lookin for altho the apexi looks the best i think i would still go with the K&N just cause its always done me right. I have also noticed that performance an cleanliness isnt everything tho i have in the past noticed fuel milage gains using the K&N filter. has anyone here had a simalar affect

SpooledupRacing

like I said let me know if u wanna sell it

your completely new to this arent you?

gus5891

sure spooledupracing i'll let you know if i want to sell it

gus5891

is it that obvious

bacek

just make sure the filter is clean...... heck you should make sure the filter is clean regardless if you have a hks or k&n...

you wont see many gains from just an intake... well your car might sound different


since you are new i suggest keeping your car as stock as possible and driving the **** out of it. youll enjoy your car that way way more than by modding it.

have fun with your fc!!
