Has anybody had any experience with these? are they worth spending the extra ££££'s over the Super Powerflow Filter kit ? does it give you more power than the cheaper version as they claim?

Don't quote me on this but i think the racing suction kit is only available for certain Imprezas

I just had the SPF installed and it really makes a difference (apart from the noise). If the racing version is better then I would really recommend it. Otherwise go for the standard it's still cool.

How much noiser is it?

lpitt 01 October 2001 10:23 AM

Under hard driving: a lot
Under normal driving: a bit

Whistles with your foot on the accelerator, this gets louder the more you give it. On a gear change it sounds like there's a pretty major dump fitted.

what about motorway cruising at speed?

There was a thread recently with a link to the GTR owners club. There was a test of 4 filters - apexi, Blitz, HKS and K&N.

The Blitz and HKS weren't worth having on http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/eek.gif

They do give good gains, but at the expense of?

Jake 01 October 2001 04:23 PM

If they give good gains then why arent they worth having?? they dont cost much more than other certain brands I can think of

CraigH 01 October 2001 05:12 PM

Jake,

When I say they weren't worth having on, I was referring to filtration - they basically stop bugger all!

Interestingly, the Apexi filtered better than any of them, but also produced the best results.

K&N was 2nd.

I have the HKS Racing Suction Kit on my scooby - I think it is great - makes a lovely wooshing noise, and I did notice a slight increase in performance over the Monster Racing Suction Kit that I had.

does it retain MAF sensor and gubbins? cos if not then no good.
