I know CBRD sells the filters but mine came from MAPerformance. My buddy said he asked a bunch of vendors and they came back the cheapest.

Now if it comes down to them being very similar performance wise, well, then looks would be the tie breaker.

I've seen the good things said about the Perrin filter, but I haven't seen any actual comparison between Perrin and Apexi.

Check S2krackers thread, https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...t-results.html.

Good on the lads.

I have the Samco intake pipe. No issues involved while getting my car tuned last spring. I'm not sure where the collapsing information came from.

Thanks! I read the initial thread a while ago, but haven't followed up with it. Didn't know results were out.

So i did finally get this installed. I can't say fitment was 100%, the hose definitely took some persuasion to get on and fitted and it took a little work to get the maf bracket bolted down.

Anyway on to the pics:

ok so if your running a stock setup, and you change your hoses, and i just recently purchased a perrin stealth fmic, and i would probably keep it perrin hoses also, would that without any other mods give me any type of hp or tq?, (just basically changing intercooler and hoses)

I think I'm just going to pick up the Samco intake tube cause I can't justify the extra $75 for the Perrin one. Did anyone measure the length of the Samco one? I'm still curious to see which one is the longer, the Perrin or the Samco...

I've been running the Samco induction tube with the stock airbox as well as the Samco intercooler couplers for the last year or so with no issues whatsoever. I first put them on before I got a tune and had no problems. The tube is silicon which keeps you from needing to get a tune in order to get it to idle correctly. Hard intake pipes seem to create echoes (resonance) which are picked up by the MAS and cause idle issues.

Collapse? Why? Is an air filter more restrictive than a silicon tube?

Hard pipes are cheaper to make. Don't believe me? Just ask China...and eBay.
