Anyone tried an Apexi Filter on the car?

It is meant the top performing filter in this test, just wondered how people have found them on their cars?

Only get a genuine one though, I have had one before

Yes, it's awesome.

Have heard rumours about the cheaper ebay ones being fake, but have had them delivered and they look too good to be fake!

 

[Mark300zx]

Yes, it's awesome.

What other filters have you had, did you have to buy an adaptor and where did you get it from?

The original article was published in 1999??

I'd hope there have been some improvements in the last 12 years....

I have one currently fitted. But I prefer the sound of my blitz sus

I don't think so, no one independent really wants to do the testing, and I think a lot manufacturers spend more on marketing than R&D.

I have and it was top quality. Big powered supra's and gtrs use them.

What sort of a difference did you notice?

Thanks they seem to get good results, but my only niggle is they are probably worried about advertising revenue.

This is one of the few tests that are allegedly independent.

compared to airbox just feels a bit free-er lol, just spool a bit better, and louder lol the blitz sus is a lot louder tho lol, proper spool sound!

I've got an apexi on my Ibiza and blitz sus on my mr2

Both sound great but I'd say my apexi was a better filter.....
