Car is: RX-7 Twin Turbo 1999-2000

I am actually looking on replacing the restrictive stock airbox with the HKS racing suction air Intake system. Anyone knows if its worth it?

Can i have a picture of it installed on RX-7!

Thanks

 

i have been told it is sweet. kind of pricey though. i am getting an apexi intake and gonna just use the filters on my greddy piping

 

Not mine....but heres a few pics i found

 

Also....your gonna get that mooing sound if you go with any intake that has hardpipes.

 

You know that you can just get the filters individually, right?

 

I have hard pipes and no mooing? whats up....I wanna moo too.

p.s. I don't have the air pump if that makes any difference.

 

The air pump is what makes the "moo" sound. And it's not desirable.

And it's not the hard pipes that create moo sound, it's having an open intake period. The moo sound is almost unnoticeable with box-style intakes.

 

i dont have any moo sound on my car

 

 

My m2 intake box i had was almost as loud as the open air intakes. I bascially used the same method Pettit does on their intakes to filter out the sound on my HKS now....and you can barely hear it at all now.

 

The "moo" sound is not from the airpump but it comes from the second turbo airflow valve/pump.

It's the hose coming from the back/under the UIM.

Put an oil pan relief filter on it with some extra airfiltermaterial pushed into it (or just something spongy)

it's an air vent only so nothing will be getting in the engine that way

 

how does your filters get anything but hot air?

it looks like your airguide stops all airflow to them.

 

I had the shield on only for picture purpose, just showing how the IC and radiator was ducted...I never ran it that way...the shield was off most of the time

 

mine are awsome...and i can live with the moo..because what acompanies my shifts at WOT is well wroth a little moo..lol.

will post pix tom.

 

this is interesting because i have my airpump with the greddy intake. i had no mooing sound. I then put an oil breather filter on the air pump intake peice. still no mooing sound. maybe i just dont hear it who knows

 

You should be grateful. Mine moo's like crazy!!

 

if the moo-ing is there - you'll know about it.

Interestingly, mine has suddenly stopped (90% of it, and the constant 2500rpm drone) - I have no idea why, but I hope it's a good thing (the lack of moo certainly is)

 

Just installed those on mine and they are really great. What an improvement and what a sound.

 

Anyone knows what the HKS suction kit includes? Does it come with 2 intakes and 2 hardpipes or just one?

 

Mine had 2 intakes, 2 hard pipes, one long and one short, a rubber pipe, a stand to attach to the intercooler of solidity and 2 or 3 screw clips.

I have a photo at home of all the set. If I find it I will psot it.

 

I was looking at the HKS intake, but is it easy to uninstall the old one and install the HKS one?

 

Even a mechanical idiot should be able to swap out the stock air box for an aftermarket one without any problems. A large set of channel-locks helps with getting the clamps off the big intake hoses.
