There are two part numbers for s2000 WIX air filters, one is for S2ks from 00-06 and the other for 06-09 . Any of you guys have experience with these? Please compare both filters, elements construction etc and feel free to say which one you think is better.

no.

 

no what?

 

i wouldnt put anything WIX on my car

 

Do you mind saying why?

 

because aftermarket filters of any kind or usually junk..i stick with OEM everything when it comes to things like that

 

Op - are you thinking of buying one, or involved in selling these?

 

i use WIX oil filters :dunno:

 

Buying

 

OEM or nothing.

 

No experience with one but i can't imagine that it would be much cheaper than OEM. I can't imagine that they would be better than what Honda has put in. You can usually place OEM ones online pretty cheap.

 

On an n/a car I think you guys are kidding yourselves.

 

I'm not kidding..

 

me neither...aftermarket has no place on my car when it comes to maintenance items...sorry but its OEM or nothing for me

 

I agree w/this statement. I only run oem oil filters and head-gaskets/etc. Belts and air filters aren't that big of a deal on an n/a car. Some items don't have to have the Honda stamp on them to be effective. If this was a 700whp car, I'd be somewhat more discrete on what I used, however for most people, it's not an issue.

 

my serp belt is a gatorback, so i know what things i can upgrade and what i should keep oem...anything that has to filter anything or fluids, gets oem stuff unless i know for a fact there are benefits over factory and most filters dont measure up

 

.. and Boots does know his ****.

 

i like foam filters, they filter good and have good flow, i use oem oil filters though and serp belt

 

How about cabin air filters. is factory that much better?

 

If you listen to the guys here yes.

I wonder who makes Honda filters??.....food for thought.

Most "oem" products aren't even true "oem", just re-badged.

However, I won't disagree w/boots. He has dyno plots and engineering data directly from honda about filters and the benefits over other companies.

 

Cheapest one ftw.

 

no need to be a tool jackass...its an opinion...and i mean i work on cars for a living and have done so for the past 8 years, i know who makes what and what needs to be put on my car...and a shitty wix filter thats made out of tissue paper, does not...dont be an *******, i can be a bigger one...douche

 

I expected more from your boots, I was enjoying the comradery.

 

i prefer watching you bitches fight - carry on.

 

i was in a mood first thing this morning
