Talking GREEN Drop in Filter Installed

Due to a fluke... I was able to get and install the new GREEN Filter drop in.

First impressions... I need to drive it more

It seems that there is a "feelable" gain in performance. Somehow the car feels like it revs faster (best way to describe it, there is still no "torque kick"). Where it is most noticeable is in partial throttle. Under partial throttle, the car really seems to open up.

Now remember I compete in SCCA Solo2 B-Stock so a cone filter is out of the question.

I will try and dyno the car first chance I get with, without, and with no filter.

:D :D :D

Alex, i put the K&N drop in and my impression was the same as you described and the thinness of it is the same as well, its less than half the thickness of the Stock one.

Great, I didn't want to do a intake due to waiting on SC or Turbo and then all the changes. Tanks

So other than their own propaganda, does anyone have any references to indicate that this is superior to K&N, which seems to be very similar? Any independent test results, measuring either performance or filtration capability?

IMHO I don't think there really is much difference between one or the other. The only reason I didn't buy the K&N was because it wasn't at the store and the GREEN was.

Alex, does Dynamic Turbo sell any other parts for the 8. I bought some parts from them years ago for my first gen 20g Eclipse.

They are starting to. I got my Greddy exhaust there, and another guy bought a HKS exhaust. They also got sway bars, springs, and even had a HKS coilover kit by mistake.
