Apexi or K&N..

 

I've got an HKS mushroom

 

probably better off with a replacement filter in original airbox.

 

Ah Simon! ;-) What Apexi or K&N, I have been told to get the largest one that will fit in the space, help?

 

STI PANNEL FILTER

 

Stick with the STI pannel filter, I spent £190 on my HKS mushroom filter before everyone told me it was a bad move! you dont wanna keep replacing faulty MAF sensors.

 

As wee jock is using a FMIC he probably has had to do away with the std air box so telling him to stick with a panel filter is no use, He also has a pre my99car that is fitted with a far more robust MAF as long as the filter is secured and doesn't vibrate to much should be OK, I used a Apexi filter for 2 1/2yrs and thought it was a good piece of kit (But i think they only make 1 size for the Impreza) I now use a large green cotton cone filter on a custom adaptor plate that does away with the MAF.

 

Are you running after market engine management? Car was going well yesterday!

 

Yeah I use a good old Link.

I was quite pleased with the times yesterday considering the weather.
(Don't suppose you got any good pics/vids of my car did you, my missus ain't no David Bailey )

 

Yup it was crap! TBH I am no David Bailey neither but I will ask our kid as he took his video camera. Did your car get through the day intact?

Oih! You hijacking my post?

 

Sorry mate! FWIW I am using an Apexi filter on my my2000 wrx ra. Changed the maf sensor once so far so good.

 

the Apexi intake flows well for it's size and is well priced.

not happy with the filtration on the HKS although never had a problem as a result admittedly.

You had a Monster of a thing on yours, remember seeing it in the back of your wagon! Can I not get one that big? (Thats what my wife usually says!)

 

Yes Mark at Lateral Performance sells them..

 

I may consider selling the ally trumpet I used on mine.. as I now have a 100mm one rather than the 70mm one on the car now.

You would just need a filter then.

Simon

 

Yeah but what do I buy? Can we do away with the MAF? Did you get my email on Sat?

Sorry to be a pain in the butt!

 

You are no pain in the butt.. just going to check emails..
