I'm about to order an intake for my car, and I'm not sure which to go with.

For me it is simple... I had HKS intake on my previous car and EVERYONE who saw it just noticed "it is good for performance but bad for engine because filtration of HKS filters is poor". That is why I have decided on ST205 to use Apexi kit. So when someone ask me which one to choose: HKS or Apexi? I can say: I had both and now using Apexi. Guess why?

Thats right the reason why i went for the apexi is because i saw the article that reviews a bunch of intakes. The apexi came out on top for power and filtration. Its a plus that it is a pure japan product too. Filters I've tried: Apexi (Current) Weapon R Fujita Injen Generic Ebay -------------------- 94 Celica GT

That is what I was running in Okinawa on my Celica, I made it a point to bring it with me to the states, and guess what, I still have it, useing it on my 3sgte when I get it. -------------------- From Japan to Texas my st202 follows me.
 Being different from every angle of the word, leading the Revolution (TOYOTA NATION) The RHD st202 that made it from Japan check it out. http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=78103 |
