Hi i know these a long thread and a old one to but it give great info i just buy a perrin filter the ? Is should i have to change my injen intake to a perrin or samco silicone one??? My injen intake it havent give any problem but i like to hear your opinion????? Thanks guy keep up the good work

 

Bump!!!!!!!!For answer

 

You still can use that pipe if that fits. Sorry never had injen intake.

 

Thanks i was thinking on changing it but know i will let on and see how its works do you think it will improve better air flow and idle????

 

It is going to be easy enough to find out isn't it?

 

Definitely going with the Perrin now, great thread, and very impressed with the results tested. I had to laugh when the K&N's didn't preform well at all and running no filter yielded better results lol.

 

If you want your Evo to be fast, you better be using a Perrin filter. Using any other filter is just like saying "I could have a faster car, but I choose not to".

 

It's interesting, I read it totally differently: to have nearly as much power, with the best filtration, and ease of a totally dry filter (unliked the oiled Perrin), I went with the Amsoil filter.

Is it supposed to be oiled? I've been spraying oil on mine but not sure If it needs to be oiled...

 

Amsoil is the only filter I'll recommend. The Perrin requires heavy oil in order to filter correctly and most people generally remove a lot of the oil before installing, thus negating the filtering effects. The Amsoil will produce similar gains with better filtering.

did anyone in this thread bring up the effect of an oiled filter on our MAFs? old thread, i know.. but it's the only thing keeping me from purchasing a Perrin filter. i'm told oil is no bueno for MAF cars.

 

I've had mine appropriately oiled for over two years, and my MAF, including the sensor, has no buildup of any oil or other contaminants. I think the people that have issues with the oiled filters must be just soaking the ish out of the filter to the point that the excess oil will separate, and flow through the pipe down to the MAF.

 

that's kinda what I was thinking. I actually have one of the Buschur filters used in this test. but I know it won't last forever, so looking for my next filter.

 

Amsoil ftw

**** the rest

My buddy bought a brand new Perrin intake and it ****ed his maf sensor since there's so much oil on it.

For us Evo owners we need to do oil changes, fluid changes, brakes etc.

It's nice to add parts that require zero maintence.
