k&n fipk???

is the k&n fipk just a filter and mas adapter? or is there more to it?

i've had my gst for almost a month now and haven't bought anything for her yet. i'm about to sell my crx and i'm going to start with a new intake. but i don't want to spend $100 for a filter and adapter when i can get an adapter for like $10 and a k&n cone for like $50.

Re: k&n fipk???

im told that the K&N filter is the only way to go on a DSM , im not sure why but i wont argue. Although i was thinking of going with an APEXi unit, looks nicer and has the same gains as the K&N.

Re: k&n fipk???

yes, it is just a filter and adapter. I like the shape of the filter it uses, but a generic adapter and round K&N filter wll work as well. Why not save a few bucks... Go for it.

Re: k&n fipk???

I have the K&N FIPK on my car with a dejontool intake and the difference between stock is night and day as far as response. I totally recommend the K&N. I got mine off of dsmtrader for $65, well worth it. Try to find a used one like I did.

Re: k&n fipk???

i have my old FIPK sitting in my garage with the cleaner kit and all. i might be missing the front 'L' bracket, not sure, but i'll check it for you and if it's all there i'll give you a VERY fair deal on it. you can pay me thru Pay-Pal or something. oh ya, it is only like 4 months old. I replaced it with a GReddy/Trust Airnix filter.

I have one too.. The only thing that i dont like about it is the snorkel adapater... Kind of like the look of the engine more... From what i heard it flows a little more air too.. But overall.. i like it.. First thing youll notice is the turbo is much louder...and you can here the BOV a little more if that matters to you...

Re: k&n fipk???

Sorry to hijack your thread, sort of, but I was wondering what everyone thought. FIPK vs injen. Any opinions on which is better?

Re: k&n fipk???

the fipk is just the filter and adapter. the injen is the intake pipe, filter and adapter with or without bov return.
