k&n fipk pics? Anybody have a pic of a K&N FIPK installed in their car? Preferably an auto.... Post 'em up, thanks! |
meh I do somewhere. search gallery. but really why not get typhoon? It makes more hp, and better technology. I'll let you know how it is. |
I think I have one on my site below |
|
never heard of it... link? basically I want something quality, short, and preferably will give me as much power as I could expect out of an intake... keep in mind my car is filled to the nines with audio gear, so I need the space under the hood for battery/wiring/fuses/et al. a short ram intake would be good, I'm just trying to find one that is suitable for me |

gear, what's really the difference? they both were made my k&n, right? which one is more expensive btw? hm...so that's typhoon w/o the plastic guard apparently....... |
I only paid $175 shipped for typhoon. Has mandrel bent piping for smoother air flow (not possible with plastic), xtream tip filter for better airflow, etc. I'm gonna try and fit a generic metal heat shield around the filter. |
^ I would think that the benefits of the mandrel bent piping and such would be nullified due to the lack of a headshield. Our engine bays are very tight and cramped for space. Wouldn't the metal piping also heat up quicker than plastic? |
^ Indeed. especially due to the fact that typhoon does not have shield on it.... |
shield is $10 from ebay/. |
prolly should consider this rather than FIPKII? lol.. |
i'll let you know since I would have tried both in another week. The only concern I have is the heat shield might not fit because of that radiator hose in the way. from the pic above. |
both look good im wondering what gear box thinks of both of these as well, i had the aem v2 on my car loved it now i have an auto so now im unsure |
also worth noting...if you believe the K&N dynos...the typhoon was dynoed at 92F degrees and made 5+whp, the fipk dyno alot cooler around 70F and made only 4+whp. |
but the only dyno i saw was from a ex manual not auto? and now i have a lx |
you'll see the ex auto dyno of typhoon when I get it done in a month or two. :) |
