When I read up about this, some company had done a test using carbon powder and a vacume cleaner and then measured how much was passing through and the amount of air flowing.

HKS were the least effective but produced best airflow,
K&N were good at both
Apexi were the cleanest and had high airflow,

I would go with apexi units, then spend alot of R&D on their products which usualy pays of, I saw mentioned earlier the Blitz units with metal mesh, they give a nice sound but are very poor and cleaning the air.  HTH :burnout

I also happen to have a set of Apexi filters as im hoping to go single (misses leaning over my shoulder ?? lol ) they are in ok nick with some of the mesh that holds the filter a little damaged from where they were sitting and rubbing in engine bay. drop me an email if your interested

Whilst the article comparing the filtration was interesting, I\'ve yet to see anything that actually specifies what size of particle is / is not tolerable coming through the turbos and engine.

Its surely irrelevant if the HKS filters let through \'more\' than the Apexi\'s if they still keep out anything large enough to be an issue...

i moved my rad down about an inch to leave a bit of a gap, glued an adaptor for some 70mm flexi pipe onto my airbox and pointed it towards the gap between the rad and the top bumper support. oh, and a K&N panel!
 
doesn\'t sound as good as raspy filters, but does the job.

I have the SR Motorsports one.  It sucks air from the front and is enclosed.  Changing filters is a snap, remove 6 screws and you\'re done.  The stock airbox, besides being restrictive is a nightmare to change filters on.  Heven\'t measured the AIT\'s yet but plan on doing that as soon as shes up running again.
