so you think its realy been canned? that would suck it looks cool :rolleyes: |
Haven't heard anything about it being cancelled. As a matter of fact they just tested the "new" unit in Tuner Magazine. Got a few hp from it (not the 10 hp they claim, but not losing hp like the previous version). That looks like the new version, as the old version is just a big K&N unit at the end of the pipe. This one, the K&N unit is shaped differently, & is covered by a plastic/CF sheath.

Just saw the same add yesterday in a Mag, but it was for the STI and guaranteeing 12hp to the wheels instead.

but how would you get more air in if you have it coverd up like that it doesnt make sence :confused: but i am going to asume they know what they are doing :) |

Many people on this board assumed that K&N knew what they were doing before, and got burned. K&N does know what they're doing, though, so let's hope this time they put some real research and effort into it. |
there's already a 5 page thread on the subject:
