kewl, but i don't have a hemi
 qui q though is 100cfm a good air flow rate? and they never covered if that amount of dirt was per w/e time. and i'm curious how the foam did the best, when in the other test it did worst, and it needs replacing the most. --------------------  |

isn't this one too?
it's interesting though IMO a filter is a filter. you can't really go wrong as long as it comes from a company that makes performance parts + cars. hks, blitz, apexi...they all have cars that run all their own parts and are amazing...i trust their parts. but i do believe that certain ones may flow better, and other filter better. it's probably an inverse relationship, since to filter, there has to be a impedance. . . . . . . . . .. . .i think also that said it was a 100cfm flow chamber. that's probably what it is rated to do w/ it's pressure change or however it works, but having something run at a constant power output and trying to different filters and having a maf or something similar connected would be awesome when's ur sik-o car gonna be done i've heard about the 264/272 combo, but never known anyone with it. -------------------- |

QUOTE(x_itchy_b_x @ Dec 21, 2006 - 3:45 PM) [snapback]512228[/snapback] dear lord, testing done by them can not be objective at all, they SELL AIR FILTERS!! thats like a cigarette company doing testing on tabacco and finding it to be not harmful....oh wait that spin was spun. i never ever trust anything put out by someone selling a product with a few exceptions. stoptech has great unbiased information about brakes. -------------------- |

haha, you guys should see what they USED to use for air filters back in the 60's and 70's on beetles and mopeds. i bet some of you old folks know the material i'm talking about...and most of you youngins have no clue
