Question HKS RS + Apexi Power intake = Questions

Hi guys. I recently bought an HKS RS intake from a forum member, and I will be buying an Apexi power intake filter.

1. Could those who have this setup please clarify what size filter/ model # they bought?

2. Also did you have to have a custom bracket created?

3. Do you have any pictures?

Thanks in advance

Why dont you just run the complete HKS intake? The intake pipe and the intake honeycomb filter/adapter... I have the complete set up and love it...

totaly agree. a couple of buddies of mine ran HKS intakes/filters and they literally had to clean their MAF sensor every month to keep their cars from running weird (WRX and EVO). i run the Apexi intakes and have zero complaints.

I have been meaning to do this also. I already have the Apexi intake just need the hks rs intake tube. I think the hks tube might need to be cut a bit.
(just looking for a used Hks pipe)
