Which Air Filter Will You Use?
 
I've been searching the forums and only found a K&N vs TRD thread but I was wondering which of all of the drop in air filter options that are out there (OEM, M7, Perrin, TRD etc..) will you use and why? Also how often do you like to change them? Thanks!

Using Apexi. It's perfect. Dry, cleanable, and good price.

I choose Perrin's drop-in filter. They made a good point about the thickness of a K&N or a gauze filter, and after looking into how a foam filter worked, it seemed like the best choice to me. And its re-usable.

I have a Cosworth now that i really like but i have the Perrin on the way to do some testing with.

Cool, thanks guys. Also how often do you guys plan on swapping/cleaning them out?

akuhei 11-15-2012 07:51 PM

I will clean it...when it says to..x.x I dont remember how often. But this is the article that sold me on the Perrin filter. Perrin Filter

HKS, APEXi, aFe, and Perrin are popular and all are good filters.

FT86SpeedFactory did a dyno showing HKS, aFe, K&N and some other one. I just ordered the aFe dry filter, can't wait to install tomorrow!! :D

I'll be sticking to the stock until its dirty enough to warrant a change. By then I hope some people have some stock vs aftermarket oil lab results as well
