im buyin a cone filter for the intake im making
the APC is half the price of the K&N so i was just wondering what you guys thought was better for the money

 

I would go with K&N, yeah its more money but its better, go with it, look on the parts for sale ive seen a couple of post there of people sellin K&N's for cheap, or even check ebay, this is only if ur talkin about the money being a prob

 

If you don't get a K&N you risk clogging up your mass air flow sensor which is like a 300 dollar part. Spend the money up front instead of having to buy a K&N later once you've already got the other filter and found out it sucks.

 

The APC filter is fine. I was running the PepBoys-rice section-special APC filter when I had my custom "Pop-charger", and I'm still using that same filter now on my WSP CAI. The difference in quality/performance isnt justifiable by the difference in price. The APC is just as good, and in will no way harm your car. It's every bit as good as the K&N.

 

ha, thats where i found the apc, they have k&N's but there a bit too big for what i wanna do
everyone that said go with K&N. are they really harmful?
it doesnt seem like it would make that much of a differnce
and the APC comes with a pipe and a clamp bulit onto it

 

bottom line..want an intake from someone who makes everything from clear corners to coilovers to lightbulbs or want one from someone who has the best name in and specializes in high performance air filters ? dont seem like a tough choice to me,i just ordered a brand new K&N popcharger off ebay $70

 

thanks for all ur help
i know the K&N is better, but i just didnt know how much
ur popcharger was 70 bucks , the apc is only 25, just wanted to make sure that at extra cash was worth it, and the apc comes mounted already

 

well i got the whole kit,bracket,bolts,and filter..i think good deal for $70...JWT goes for $40 more

 

James is right. I personally would go with the K&N because I always have for many years, for the same reason(s) Rancid stated, but James is still right. Years ago when K&N hasd the patent on the technology that might have been different but now a cone filter is a cone filter for the most part. I'm just loyal to the brand, so sue me .
