Nismo, Blitz Or K&n, Best Drop In Filter
Just like it says guys an girls, I had a pop charger and sold it, wanted something simpler, different and to be honest I didnt like the way it looked in the engine bay, thats just me, I know Im not going to get the same sound or hp as if i were to go pop charger or other intake system, but which of those three has the least air restriction, thanks guys, for all your help.
Down the line Im planning to go with an HKS RS air intake or ARC suction box,( which would be the best of those???
) but for now just want to see which one of those would allow more air, and yes, I did search but found no clear answer, they cant all be the same, can they?

hey man you're completely right. i was going to get a popcharger but i just didnt like the look of it. i always thought the stock airbox looked great. of the three i can speak for the k&n filter. when i replaced it i had about 37k miles on my stock filter so it felt damn good. for a lil bit i thought it was a slight bit louder i could be dreaming though. the price was just right and i'm happy.

Yea, I'm happy with the K&N. I couldn't tell, but independent testing shows it will flow a lot more than the OEM at the same dp. It is reusable also, but realistically, what I will do next time is select whichever filter does the best job at filtering, and go with other components for gaining power.

I guess I'm kinda confused. You want to go from the most popular intake to something else, but still want the same flow and filtering?? HKS is a waste and will not provide more power or better filtering. I had an ARC before and while having the "bling" factor, it won't really give you any more power. If you just want another filter in your restrictive stock airbox, then the K&N is the way to go. No stock drop in filters will do more for you than the popcharger did. You will more than likely be dissatisfied.
