Shhhh... we aren't allowed to talk about those. We'll have to make our own thread.. these are K&N Junkies here... just like when we aren't welcome into the AEM conversations.


gosixers......... we are just too for skool..........

 

i would vote for the K&N FIPK. the reason is AUT Coolling plate works well in addition to drawn air the filter. the vent on the fender side also drawn air to the filter.

is the sound of the FIPK noticeable even with the Invidia installed Spec_Ops?

 

Yeah you can hear it pre-vtec when you floor it. After vtec it changes the engine sound a bit and coupled with an invidia + TP...its like jesus entering your car

FWIW I've got an FIPK and love it. I made a little GAF (Ghetto air feed) to run cold air the intake and it works excellent. I've tracked the car with this setup in HEAVY rain and driven it on the street on hot days. No water suckin' problems at all, and the filter will be cool to the touch after a 2 hour drive. Seems that the cold air fed from the intake hose is just enough to pressurize that small space that's closed off by the K&N kit, which discourages any warm air from the engine compartment from sneaking by the rubber seals and void spaces. The kit is extremely well thought out and was easy to install. Here's one pic of mine with the GAF, and a link to install pix.

does anyone know the diff between the first and second gen of the FIPK?
