General consensus is that the standard paper element and box is the best option.

 

If you really must have an aftermarket system then the TRD element in stock box or the ARC system.

 

The mushroom style filters offer poor filtration and suffer from heat soak.

Have the Apexi cone on mine with no problems, must have done around 30,000 miles using them by now :)

 

There was a crued test done a long time ago and im pretty sure out of the aftermarket filters tested the Apexi came out the best with the HKS green mushroom type the worst.

Think K & N were 2nd and Blitz 3rd

yeah i know about the heat soak and everything but i bought the car with the HKS one already on it a while back so looking to replace it! so wanna replace the HKS one but dont have the standard fitment any more!

 

With all the single conversions recently, I'm sure someone will have an airbox going cheap :)
