Which intake responds best...

HKS Racing Suction or Buschur (with maf pipe). I'm talking about responding best to flashes (ie: dynoflash, turbotrix)

Within those two....ditch the HKS, go with the BR w/ MAS pipe.

The HKS filter is garbage.

the hks filter is garbage because it has very poor filterization but dynoflash says that hks intake has the best gains with the dynoflash

They will both flow about the same amount of air but each one will affect your MAS readings differently. It would be good practice to get the intake before the reflash that way you will be sure any negative they may cause will be compensated for.
If it were up to me I'd get the HKS soley because of the foam filter and less chance of oil making its way into your MAS.

I'd rather have slight amount of oil than a pile up of dirt. The foam HKS filters do no filtrate dirt to save their own life.

The only reason you would end up with an oily mass air is if you over oiled your filter after cleaning, which much people do.

Bwah?! HAHA great sig! Get the Buschur with the MAF adaptor and promptly reflash. The HKS unit offers very little flow improvement and doesn't filter at all. Its pretty much race only, not for DD and even then you'd almost be better running filterless, if it ddn't mess with MAF readings.

Theres link of here somewhere that shows them hooking up a few intakes to cars and dynoing them and aso making them suck up dirt to show their filtering ability. An Apexi cone filter had the highest hp increase and filtering ability. HKS had high flow/hp but basically no filtering.

I posted that link in another intake thread somewhere where it shows the comparisons of the air filters. Maybe i could try finding it.

hmm interesting stuff on HKS...their products are usually full race anyways so I'm not surprised. So BR is the best bang for the buck huh. I was looking into the Injen as well because it comes witht he upper IC pipe. ANy thoughts on this product compared to BR's intake?

with your modifications.........hold up, 2.6L on the 4G63? is that even possible? 2 intercoolers?!! that's gotta be somewhere along the lines of "loosing" HP because its directly behind it and then theres the radiator behind that so cooling efficiency comes to mind as well. Back to the question at hand, yes buschur racing is the best bang for buck. But with your mods shouldn't you already know this?
