turbodreams Posted September 18, 2008 Posted September 18, 2008 Just bought one of these to replace the shitty HKS one.Whats the thoughts on these? Quote
Asad Posted September 18, 2008 Posted September 18, 2008 they are one of the best most people have one and have seen plenty of gain at the wheel.....i may be getting one as the k&n one i want is too expensive......how much was it? Quote
ste91 Posted September 18, 2008 Posted September 18, 2008 You can get these off ebay for £40 but then you need to buy a stupid adapter which is another 10. Quote
turbodreams Posted September 18, 2008 Author Posted September 18, 2008 £130cheapest i found to be honest.Dont like fleebay. Quote
Asad Posted September 18, 2008 Posted September 18, 2008 £130! u may aswell get the k&n apollo which is enclosed all you need to do is sort out a cold air feed..... Quote
turbodreams Posted September 18, 2008 Author Posted September 18, 2008 difference being? i wouldnt know how to sort out a cold air feed?Do i need to do that for the apexi aswell? Quote
ste91 Posted September 18, 2008 Posted September 18, 2008 No, I doubt an enclosed filter with a cold air feed would be as good on a Glanza anyway, you can easily get the filter in a good place with a simple U-bend pipe.Whereas on the N/A Starlets it's a pain in the ass because of the engine bay layout and where the standard airbox is.

Asad Posted September 18, 2008 Posted September 18, 2008 Need some glanza lads to comment on this really...... Quote
turbodreams Posted September 18, 2008 Author Posted September 18, 2008 what get the apexi in a good place are you talking about?130 quid seems to be the normal price, toy tuning want 160! ebay is 125.00, used ones are about £60 but sack buying a used one. Quote
ste91 Posted September 18, 2008 Posted September 18, 2008 Need some glanza lads to comment on this really...... not really mate on the turbo starlets if you get rid of the standard piping and get a "U-bend" bit of pipe you can have the filter sat infront of the radgo on the toytuning website and look at the filter relocation kits Quote
ste91 Posted September 18, 2008 Posted September 18, 2008 what get the apexi in a good place are you talking about?130 quid seems to be the normal price, toy tuning want 160! ebay is 125.00, used ones are about £60 but sack buying a used one.What's this then?http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/New-APEXi-Power-Inta...id=p3286.c0.m14 Quote
