Hey guys,

Looking for a good drop in filter for the ralliart. Let me know what you have and if you like it. Works, K&N, etc...

 

I've heard that the K&N is really good. The ppl I know seem to like it. I plan on getting it for myself soon.

 

I have a K&N drop. No performance change really. A tad noisier that the stock filter. I just see it as a cost savings over the long run and not a performance enhancer. For performance I would recommend a CAI.

 

I had a RRM SRI on it, but didn't care for it. It sounded good and gave slight gains in throttle response and power at high RPM's. However I did not like how the car lost power off the line. So I am looking at trying a drop in.

P.S. If anybody wants a RRM SRI I am selling one cheap.

Thanks

 

i have a k&n drop in filter. it does change the sound to the car a little, might increase performance a tad due to the better airflow. the ralliart pretty much already has a CAI the way it's designed.
one thing i notice about it tho during WOT passing through 2100 to 2500 rpm's, there's a slight annoying vibration sound coming from the engine bay... i think its due to the k&n filter being heavier then the OEM one.

 

n/t

 

i really like my rrm cai, sounds great and looks awesome. gotta give props to rrm

 

K&N or just run with out it when hit the track! LOL

 

i took off the air hose thingy and notice its louder when i floor it heh heh

 

the air hose thingy?

 

i believe the air hose thingy he might be talking about is the snorkle the just guides some cooler air into the air box

 

oh lol

 

yeah there you go, wasnt sure what to call it!

 

Yes your car may be louder but since your filter is directly exposed to the air coming off your motor I believe you're going to be more prone to experience the heat soak that you would get from an SRI

 

yeah but i feel that the weather stripping from the hood seems to block air from the snorkle, i was thinking of cuttin a section off of where the snorkle is and see if it helps
