K&N is prolly going to be louder since its not enclosed like the Comptech. I think the comptech looks much clear though. HP gains are probably going to be nothing noticable. I have both intakes sitting in my garage just never got a chance to try out the K&N

ive read up a lot on both these intakes, and you can't go wrong with either one. the K&N will be louder though, some say the Comptech is just slightly louder then stock.

Why? Aren't there hydrolock issues?

its much louder than stock i can tell you that but its not abnoxiously loud.

i have the FIPK too and i really like it. i've had it since my first s2000 and i've been very satisfied that its still in my second s2000.
i can't say much for the comptech though coz i've never experienced it

Stock with intake top off or intake top on? Big difference...
