Which intake is the best between these two, HKS or RE Anemiya???? thanks juan c

 

M2 Cold Air Box is Better Than Either

 

Don't get either, they are both crap with little to no filtering.

Either get an A'PEXi intake or get the M2 intake which I believe uses K&N filters.

Best bet is if you are running the stock twins, use the M2 since your turbos produce excessive amounts of heat, and you don't want that sucked into your engine.

 

Apex Power Intakes. they are proven to be the best filters in the world.

 

dont use either..there are both crappy..

Use somthing that uses K&N's...apexi and blitz fiilters also do a good job

 

just go buy some K&N filters at autozone and make you own or get a used M2 or pettit or something.....

dont buy into the hype......go with something proven.

 

HKS all the way!

 

I've got the Apex and would probably go with M2 depending on what other upgrades you are planning on doing or not doing. If you are going with a SMIC (depending on size), you want the M2, the Apex probably will not work with most aftermarket SMICs that are larger than stock. If you are going to FMIC, I would consider the Apex intakes. I am having to mod my Apex intakes to work with an aftermarket SMIC.

I would stay away from the HKS and RE...there is a filtration test link floating around here somewhere. It shows how poorly the HKS filters...lets a lot of stuff through. The Apex was shown to perform the best. Us your judgement, as it is difficult to say with 100% certainty that the test was valid and complete...and I have not seen it repeated.

 

Well, if youre still interested, I have a used REAmemiya intake for sale. PM me.......

 

I use to have the Amemiya one. It said in the instructions to remove the electrical connector for the air-pump.

This caused me to burn out the Random tech. cat. I had. When it burned up it was pretty cool, everyone that was following me said they could see the exhaust glowing red.

A few weeks later it was clogged up. From no extra air being pumped in from the air-pump.

The factory blow-off valve sounded awesume though. And I think it gave pretty decent HP, especialy on colder nights. On hot
days it would just suck in hot air.

Now I use the N-tech one. And it's more sheided from the hot
air underneath the hood. It stops more dust and debris from getting into the engine. Also now I run a borla in the mid-pipe. With the air-pump still hooked up to help the idle slightly.

The Amemiya is probally ok... if you built a pretty good heat sheild and have no main catalitic as well. But you'd probally
have to change oil more often... It doesn't filter as well as the K and N's from M2 of N-tech.
best wishes... jc.
I do recommend the M2 or the N=tech.

 

I believe this is the intake test you are reffering to:

the test was done on a Nissan Skyline R33, but intakes do the same thing on every car (well, at least normal cars). hope that test helps ya out.
