Serious performance air filters

Check it out. They're better than K&N in every way and claim to flow the most air. They even have new cone filters!

I'll need more than "they claim" before I believe anything.

1. Deeper and more numerous pleats

2. Can't see light through it like you can with K&N (better media)

3. velocity stack design (already proven by the apexi power intake)

4. polyurethane rubber mounts

5. flow bench tested to provide enough air for 600hp engine.

Only con is it could be louder than filters with a closed front like standard AEM and K&N, both of which result in higher turbulence anyway (this is bad initially, because turbulence reduces air velocity through the intake).

And they even have add-on cold air system that you can connect to the stock airbox with tubing and filter.

Well you would just get a replacement filter for your existing intake. They have all sorts of sizes. Yeah I checked and they don't offer the actual intake for our cars. The filter still sounds really good.

K&N Really sucks. Thats why everone copies them. their isnt a goddamned thing wrong with a K&N filter. So maybe a few extra particles get in. Your doing more damage by boosting and other stuff anyway.

K&N is fine. Our civics dont push enough air to see a difference with the best air filter. Its only pushing about 100 to the wheels not much
