fipk k&n vs injen intake

[RiceRocket18]

speaking of which, where is kevin? did he abandon us?

i think it all comes down if you wanna have a clean look under the hood. performance wise, i doubt there's any big difference. but if you're one of those guys who shine every spot and color match everything then FIPK is the choice for you. and if not, i am sure the home depot DIY 'll work just as well, provided if you build it right.

What the hell is a klze? Please don't bring mazda info to someone looking for a turbo DSM intake.

I don't know where Kevin is, just busy I assume.

i was set on getting the Injen intake kit (pipe and filter) i think it has a cleaner look to it than some ebay pipe and k&n fipk. But you guys are saying the fipk is sooo much better than the injen filter. both are name brands i can't belive the fipk is better by much.

so can someone please explain why its better? and if i should really go with it and some other pipe. also is an fipk better than a normal 3" k&n cone filter? if so why?

K&N is the most common and therefor most recommended (best) filter to get. You can buy a pipe and filter separate, get a dejon pipe and K&N filter.

On the stock turbo I don't think a hard intake pipe will do much, if anything at all, when it comes to performance. On a larger turbo with a bigger compressor inlet, then of course. The ONLY reason I have an injen intake pipe on my car is because it was on there when I bought the car. Oddly enough, it is for sale right now because I could use the money for other things (PM me if interested).

LOL, I've actually already got the money for the 14b, but holding off until I'm sure I've got enough for christmas present money too . I'm selling this intake pipe so I can get a 190lph, and an electric die grinder for porting that 14b .

And in case anyone's curious, the intake (comes with filter and mas adapter) is about $245 brand new, so I'm looking for around $150 OBO!

i just don't think you can go wrong with an injen intake or aem for that matter, they have to be decent. at least they're not ebay junk

Did you read the description?

"his shape coincedentally has a the same circumference as a 4” diameter tube, allowing standard aftermarket 4” cone filters to attach directly to the tube in applications where the 2G flow meter is not, used such as in stand alone fuel system like Haltec or AEM. "

Overkill and wouldn't work anyway.

Get a cheap Ebay intake pipe...bomz makes one I think. Seriously. It will be all you need, up to like 350 hp. It's like getting a Greddy race pipe to bolt in place of the cat--all you need is a straight piece of piping the same diameter, with flanges! Same principle applies.

what would happen after 350 hp is reach? (ofcourse in case is reach ) I looked into ebay and found a customized pipe. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...940195659&rd=1 I think this would do it, wouldn't it?..... Thanks......... and "LandoAWD", this time I read the whole description
