Well i ordered an HKS filter a little while ago, open the box and i was surprised it didnt look like my last hks filter. so i went online to check and see if i got scammed lol. turns out HKS has a new filter on the market.

HKS Racing Suction Reloaded Kits have been developed as the leading intake system for high performance applications. Each kit features aluminum suction pipes that have been tested for optimal air flow. Included in each kit is HKS' Reloaded filter with its patented Super-Funnel and new technical advances:
- Filter cage allows for 30% more intake surface area
- Aluminum back plate for added strength
- Sealing ring reduces contaminants from entering engine
- Dual Density wet filter element

heres pics i took of it. looks like it will filter better than the last one i had.

lol, i never really thought of the test that way.

wether or not the air is turbulent or laminar, i do not know, in EITHER case...
i was not using the test as a filtering aspect, as the HKS is supposed to changed anyways. . .
i was refferring mainly to the flow amount.

while yes, the test can still be flawed, because can they simulate it accurately matters, but in this case...i think a basic "how well does it flow x air" will work. the design probably mainly determines the flow characteristics. if they change in designs is enough to make a big difference, iunno. but i think a filter that works the least as a barrier is best...not too worried about filtering
