K&N Drop in filter installed. (two thumbs up)

JOKINGFG2 · 03-21-2007, 11:34 PM

Since im waiting for someone to come out with an ice box, Ive decided to install a drop in filter for now. I was very satisfied with the results. I know there are little or if any gains from the filter but, I noticed that the car warms up much faster in the morning due to the less ristriction. Ive also noticed a louder than stock v-tec cross over and feel a little more low end grunt, but I know it could be all psychological. Well all in all I give it a 10 out of 10, because its the best thing for me until an ice box comes out and I love the louder than stock v-tec cross over. So hurry and pick one up.lol nah jus joke

thanx

Yeah for those who are looking for that v-tec grunt and are on a budget or just waiting for an ice box the K&N drop in filter is the way to go!!

tommyroo · 03-21-2007, 11:57 PM

Isn't the icebox gone forever since comtech closed?

JOKINGFG2 · 03-22-2007, 12:04 AM

I also had K&N Filters installed last week. But, I’m really that good in determining a good sound.

^^not really an Ice Box......more of a forced induction box.....straight JDM, there have been numerous debates if the bling is worth the buck, I mysldef was waiting for this but think I am going the Injen CAI route....just my .02

SiRyan · 03-23-2007, 06:54 PM

I love my K&N Drop in. Waiting for the ARC Super Induction Box, since Comptec is RIP.

djsolution · 03-26-2007, 12:12 AM

Such a shame we won't see an Icebox. That was my third and final intake for my EP. Loved that thing. K&N filter is in the mail at least. Guess it'll have to do for now.
