HKS drop ins

Drop in filters won't do a whole lot when it comes to HP, they are designed to slightly improve airflow but the biggest benefit is that you can reuse them instead of buying a new oem every 10k miles

yah, this is where i keep ending up... i cant see myself spending extra over stock filters for a freer breathing filter that cant really translate any more than a few hp improvement. such small change (like 3-4whp) is like the difference between driving in a humid or dry morning.

anyone try with the ARC intake tube yet?

I've been using the HKS filters with Cobb tubes for a bit now. Sound is more pronounced, and response is much better than stock. No idea on any power numbers but it's a fair improvement for driveability. I'd be willing to try the AFE filters next after these wear down.
