Is it better off to get a K&N replacement filter or a cone shape filter with aluminum intake pipe (like the one made by Injen)?? which way produces more HP?

Hehehe... injen? produce more power? I think you mean, "How much power will I lose with an Injen intake?" About 15-20 on a hot day. They prototyped it off of my car - that piece of shit is sitting in a corner of my garage collecting dust.

If I recall correctly, there is no easy K&N replacement filter.

There is one from JR; look for lots of posts, group buys, even dyno numbers on this.

Personally, I'm waiting on the new one Giampiero (MG Racing) has been talking about. Does anyone have any more details (availability, price, dyno numbers) on this?

Thanks,

Ted

JR or Comptech would be the optimal current choices. have not seen dyno for Comptech (have for JR).

if you search on JR filter on this site you'll get huge amounts of data.

oh... and before you ask about CAI options and open *that* can of worms i'd suggest a search there too...

I talked to the boys from K&N at the SEMA/NOPI show in Long Beach and they said they were about 2 months away from releasing their Stook filter.

Reedz is right on.. it was two months away the three times I asked starting in October '99. I have moved on and don't expect I will be in the market for a K&N for this car.
