We had a great turn out this time around. Around 15 cars showed, and they all came EARLY! So we started just before you got there. We ran the same route as last time.

My intercooler hose blew off the TB again at the cruise. Luckily, it was when we were returning back to where we started. Time to get some t-bolts ASAP.

What are you guys using for drop in filters? I want to check some out. My K&N keeps sucking dirt(around the edges). Going back to the stock filter for now.

I have the WORKS and I'm happy with it. I felt a little more pull in the upper revs probably only 5whp but hey what do you expect. I'm considering running the ARC induction box or an Apexi cone filter with an SS maf pipe, either of those set ups would probably yield another 5-10whp over a drop in filter but our ECU's hate open element filters without tuning. You just just have to decide, do you want to spend $100 for 5whp and a stealth set up or spend $300+ for 10-15whp and some bling Just make sure you get tuned ASAP if you get an open intake otherwise your car will run like shlt.

PS- My filter has 3k miles on it, still look brand new my car isnt a daily driver. I'd sell it with the service kit for $100 (MSRP $135+$20 for service kit +shipping)

I'm running the K/N and mine seems to run awesome. I don't remember who told me this or I don't know who much true there is to it but someone told me the K/N's work better dirt then clean because it traps better. You can take that with a grain of salt.

Don't care about the money or HP. My car has enough for me. I want clean air. Lotsa dirt on the roads up here. I'll buy your works if you upgrade.
