What happened to the Works drop-in air filter thread???

I'm not saying you didn't think of it first. And I'm not saying that you stole the design. All I'm saying is, try not to harp on someone about 'stealing' your completely generic design when an argument could easily be made that you did the same, but are generating a profit from it.

For the third time, don't throw stones.... (I'll finish it this time for you) in a glass house.

When did i ever say that someone STOLE our design? I didnt even bring up berks or mach v until you did.

Since youre really into this, why dont you buy the exhaust and do all the critique you want?

Ill maybe thrown in a free filter for you just to resolve the tension between us

So you can imply that I plan to steal your product, repeatedly, but the accusation doesn't count because you didn't use the term 'steal'?

How about I buy the exhaust and you send the FREE filter to one of the vendors who offered free testing, regardless of what type of dyno they own?

And there's no need to ease tension. I hold nothing personally, and our debating doesn't deter me from ordering parts from you (though your business practice and avoidance tactics displayed in the previous thread do).

I've got my eye on some plate frames to go with my new Perrin front plate bracket...

The reason for a baseline figure and then a after figure in the same running conditions is that you can calculate a % increase. The numbers are meaningless as they will change between dynos but across all dynos the % power increase will be the same. People should stop reading into exact figures. That's also why a baseline-less run is meaningless as so many variables can change the numerical output..... IMO, Area under the graph > peak figure

Well, like I said. I'm more than willing to do 2 runs if funds are raised lol. I'm willing to do what is necessary...FOR SCIENCE!!!

It's cold outside so I'm trying to warm up by the flamewar.

Why people spend so much energy on this is beyond me, pick oiled or non-oiled and a brand you like and be done....

I did. I chose K&N for their reputation and thorough testing procedures. I know what gains to expect, and what level of filtration quality is standard for their products.

I just hate when I see this type of misleading, cloudy business practice in what should (could) become a close-knit community that sticks together.

The last car community I was involved in was the mr2 community, which was great to be a part of.

some1 post the dyno for this filter and be done with this nonsense i bought the filter and i can honestly say it packs a punch..

This thread is even more interesting than the deleted one.
It's like watching a sequel, only this time the sequel is better

Won't be much longer and this one will be deleted.
I think we are in for a few "episodes" until someone ponies up and posts a before and after Dyno to put this issue to bed, which would be good for the community and 86_ZN6.

Ok guys, third party dyno results are in. Here are my results:




Seems pretty legit.

[Sargy]

Made me feel better a little.

PROGRESS
