Check the response from the guys that have installed already... Unfortunately nobody has taken the dyno test and challenge as yet..
The comments are mid improvement and the sound the filter gives, almost replicating a super charger.
I'm excited.
I checked with Toyota, the ECU will automatically adjust settings to compensate for the additional air flow. Some guys have disconnected the battery for 2 mins which supposedly resets the ECU.... Not sure about that, so will take this into consideration during Dyno testing..

Hey Ryan

I was thinking of maybe ordering one of the Works panel filters as well. I was reading a bit on the forum but I see they locked it. Dunno why. So, what's your review on the filter, any dyno tests yet?

I have the full kit which has just landed in JHB, will have it by Fri, so hoping to have dyno test by next week, so hang in until then. I also suggest chatting to the other guys as 86-ZN6 has really cool stuff that you could maybe do a combined purchase and share the shipping.

Hi Ryan,

Any news on the dyno, and filter ?

Been follow the main works thread but seems to be getting political...

thx

[Ryan86]

Plans are to run a dyno shortly, just finding the time is the issue.
I have after 3000km opened the air box, confirm no dirt or oil on the inside and the filter still clean.
The response and sound from this filter is really amazing and even if no gains are shown on a dyno, for the price this filter is simply awesome.

Please remember any modification is at your own risk.

Hi Ryan,

Was it your 86 @ the Toyota meetup @ Zwartkops with the Takeda intake?

[Ryan86]

That would be the one and only Geetee86.

[DrSUTRA]

Do tell me more about how the intake feels as compared to the Works DIF.

I was there too with the Red Hi Spec...

Yea I agree, if we can find a mid range solution that would be awesome!

Love that line too!

Ryan86, any more info/pics of the builds maybe...?
Do they offer a custom build kit...?
