steer clear of HKS and Greddy filters as they let in a lot of crap. do a google for the filter test from the Supra forum.

Ive ran hks shrooms for years and will continue doing so, i find them excellent but they must have their filter elements changed every year with a service.
 
They can\'t be that bad as feed use them and every other fd in last years and this years hyperREV mag\'s use them inc,
 
Famspeed
Ti Racing
Rmagic
 
They get knocked on supra forums but if they are good enough for these guys im happy at that.

Iv\'e had both and dont think there is much in it, think the apexi sound better and less moo sound if running air pump.
HKS takes up less space and the RS version looks tidy but neil jdmr is right in saying filter replacement is regular.
I find the air filter snobbery quite funny as the stock system with a K&N filter would probably be best but it looks nasty.

This is an old thread which someone spamed on a few days ago, it was their first post and it was subsequently removed.
Which made my previous post look a bit odd:Giggle
