Has anyone tried using the HKS filters (the green mushroom ones)?

I just replaced the left intake filter on my APS TT kit with one from K&N. Should I replace both of them instead?

Thanks

PS - left filter got smashed.

The intake filter is what it looks like in the picture. I'm not sure what my replacement K&N part was but the guy working on my car right now said it's virtually the same size. I was also told by GTM when I called them to just go ahead and order a K&N replacement filter.

Nobody told me I should replace my GOOD filter as well, but you guys think I should do this?

Thanks.

OK... Replace the filters today, and the winner is:

Is a little harder than I spec it but is worth the trouble, the car feels a lot stroger at WOT, in idle if you stand in front of the engine you can hear the ssssshhhhhh of the filters hehehe

^Nice!

ZU L8R's replacement K&N filter is 2.75 I.D and yours is 3"...so I'm guess we can use both?

I'm going to check if K&N makes one with a polished cap on the end. I think I remember seeing it somewhere.

Thats a much better size. More like what I would expect to see. Those others are too small I think.

I don't know but this K&N's got to have more air flow that the stock greddy's... the car pull a lot harder on top end and is a little leaner on the A/F metter on top rpm's (11.2 @ 7000 and now 11.6 @ 7000)
I'm gonna go to the dyno soon, I bet have some xtra HP there

just swapped mine out for the K&N RX-4960



It is the same as the other guy's but these are 2.75" ID flanges......which is what the greddy piping is.

Looking good... I put 3" because is easier to put in the tube

P.S. I believe your tunning will be fine, maybe a little leaner but not a big deal... mine car felt more stronger in all the rpm range... try yours and post your impressions...

Excellent Matt!
If you were serious about this you could buy the JWT popcharger recharger kit and it would turn the filters blue. I used to use the K&N recharger kits on my popcharger to turn the popcharger red.
