I personally think that the SPOON/Monster Power Filter are great for daily driving and road course racing. Since it's OE position in box filter so it keeps your torque.

They are the same but Monster cost quite a lot less.

Of coz if money is not a problem ARC super induction system is very very nice to have. Great to keep away from hot air and improve quite a bit on throttle response.

Contact me at spoonek4@hotmail.com or Ben/Alan at info@aj-racing.com if u need further info on those filters.

Sgt is that how you run yours? Just open like in the pic?

Tomorrow I'm gonna open up my box and feel the difference. I have the "icebox but haven't run it open like a short-ram yet. Is the power different without the box attached and if so how? I'm not wanting just louder and I know you race so I thought you could shed some light.

Thanks,

A.

i like the spoon... that is what I use. you can keep it in the box and it isn't as loud as the open type filters.

i made several tests with open filters and they all suck... they have an awesome sound tought...

use an RU-2710 inside the oem box, and take out the resonator... that's the best thing you can do for low buck...
