Just wondering if you felt anything at all from it or is it not really worth it until you get other mods?

https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/7330266-post489.html I can tell that it revs quicker - feels like the car breathes better.

sounds good... how much did the UICP help though? Must have been a lot.

UICP went on months ago. I just put the HKS filter in and AP map to match couple days ago. I can tell a noticeable difference is how quick and easily the car revs now. It's only about 50 bucks for the filter and worth every penny IMO.

I may get the HKS, who knows where I can get the best price on it? I have seen 38.00 so far, BUT I don't know how much shipping is. Any vendors on here selling them?

Do you already have an AP, if not contact MAPerformance(Adam), they were giving them away free HKS filters with the purchase of an Access Port.

yeah I do already have it, otherwise that might not be a bad deal.. although I got my AP for 615.00 so I guess it depends on their price.

you know I thought they would be cheaper there, but all the ones I saw on there were like 45.00-50.00.

I believe 15k.

I run one with the Perrin St1 map, and have no issues.

that was posted on another forum, and the guy said that the k/n acts 99% same as the hks with the ap map. They are also working on an AP map for the k/n as well.

I just can't get myself to buy one of those foam filters as they don't filter the tiny particles very well.
