wow those were interesting test results. i always thought the HKS filter looked really cool, but i guess i'll go for the APEXi filter. the tl-p is a 2.75 diameter while the type S has a 3 inch diameter.

Direct Quote from the person who posted the webpage with the test results.
"It is questionable how accurate the original source of data is, as HKS are proven to sell more induction kits than any one of the others featured in the test, and yet there induction kit rates as the worst kit in the test. This suggests that either HKS rely upon their brand name to sell their 'poorly' manufactured air filters, or that the original Japanese test was nothing more than a PR stunt to promote the lesser known equipment. HKS and Blitz continue to be the best selling induction kits in the UK, and are used by Middlehursts, Hiteq and Abbey Motorsport as their first choice when the induction kit modification is carried out."
Just don't trust any test results you seen. I seen numerous test results showing that foam filters are superior to oil cotton/mesh filter like the one K&N sells. I believe it to be true because Comptech Icebox comes with one. The real down side to the foam filter is that they get dirty more easily and have to be cleaned more often or buy replacement.
So how does the APEXi filter (uses no oil to trap microparticles and has life time use and no cleaning necessary???BULLSHT) beat a foam filter (HKS) It's a little hard to believe. Just stick with the stock filter.
