Recommended Posts

now i know many of you on here stick to OEM air filters.. and ive also heard TRD panel filters are good.. but ive also heard good things bout the ther K&N filters. Anyone got one of these on.. and would you fit and normal panel filter or the induction Kit?

 

which would be a better option?

 

ps. if you still would stick with oem or trd raiser your hand lol

Induction kits dont make any difference unless your a large single, thats the only time one is actually needed where the stock air box becomes a restriction, otherwise its purely a more cosmetic look like mine, as you could see a black plastic box with black plastic piping would ruin this look ;)

 

But you can do more to reduce the associated risks of running an induction kit, like boxing the air filter in, and making sure its vented/ducted well. Some folks on here dont like induction kits as they tend to suck in hotter air temps from the engine bay, but as I said you can do some simple things to minimise this ;)

dude that look cool! as u said cosmetic but looks very nice! where did u accquire your shinny parts from(intake) not FMIC but turbo pipes- i have some but im wondering if getting some nicer looking chrome pipes wil be worth (especially with the blue conecting parts- purely cosmetic an for no other reason than a bling bay)

 

think i need to decide either induction kit or stay with not box.

All the stock turbo pipe work was polished by Colin on the forum, Colsup I think he is ;)

 

The induction pipe work that leads from the filter to the turbo pipe work was bought as part of the HKS filter for a MAF Supra and I then bought a Blitz filter to go on the end of that as I the HKS mushroom filters are not recommended.
