I got one and i love it, but i just had a quick question... Should i buy the replacement K&N for it? I know the generic filters on ebay suck ***, just wonderin if the one on the j's i bought sucks too.. worth buying a new filter?? Thanks

 

if i were you spend the $$$ and get a APEX-i filter, well worth it. Better flowing then a K&N with better filteration and no oil to get in the intake

 

apexi has does not have an application for the Js intake

Not to bust your ***** but can you prove that statement?

 

its a moot point...
see my post above

 

ne big difference from the real j's racing intake and the replica one????

 

price tag.. and wieght.. (negligible)

you don't have the bling factor..

I had issues with the filter rubbing on the hood.. and the arm rubbing against the bottom of my upper strut tower bar

 

just use it until they get dirty and time to replace.

filter's filter.. it will give you little difference but nothing major.

if i were u i'd just use it till it's garbage and get K&N replacement later

Why'd you get a replica intake?

 

hmmm... maybe because

not everybody has a lot of money and can just afford $270 for an intake. While most of us might be able to we should not put down others for it. He got almost the same exact thing but without the bling, I really don't see a problem.

2 great reasons...

and if u say there is a power difference, I got 123whp/106 on my DOHC with just bolt on and that was a baseline run.....I could still tune it up a bit I'd assume...

 

I'd like to try out a generic/fake/JDM **** makes me puke so make it a non-bling intake for me J's weiner with some air ducting for HPDE.

I'd be more concerned with filtering ability than performance....chances are, if it lets more air in, it also lets more dirt in....dirt = bad.

Might as well throw on some knock-off MF-10's, or Sp00ms while you're at it; unless you've already got 'em.
