R2C PF10544 Black Hex drop in air filter

GOBLUE · 09-21-2015, 05:26 PM

Cool, thanks. I think I'll order these. It sounds easier than messing with the oil on K&N!

you know they are nuclear easy taking in and out, i probably will adopt your method and do a tap on them too

Its a great way to keep em clean all the time. Its crazy how well these filters flow, ive been thinking of dyno time but already put an exhaust so gains wont reflect only

Yeah, been contemplating those... having difficulty justifying another $100 for what most say is a negligible difference at best. I guess I'll see how she feels with the drop-ins and go from there!

there are dynos that show about a solid 5-6rwhp gain. I posted some and jordo did as well as a few others. For me the biggest benefit of the maf tube was the throttle response...the Z was a little boggy at certain speeds, not any more. Seems to just want to keep going.

Cool... Good to hear. I'll check those out.... Might just end up pulling the trigger...

Done. Just placed my order for a pair of Red HPS tubes!

They'll really compliment the Black Hex's I just installed tonight!

Thx for pushing me to look into it more GZ3!

Only driven her 3 times since putting the filters in but I can definitely notice a difference... a bit more throttle response and it seems to rev smoother

Tubes should be here Thursday!

Nice! I did not realize that R2C made drop ins

I've been running their intakes for three years now. I got a set of the black hex filters that I purchased when they released them a while back (maybe ~1 year?).

FWIW, I've never felt like blowing air in/on them cleaned them out very well. So I always wash them in a bucket of water with some Simple Green. Since I now have two sets, I can let them air dry for several days before storing them.

Exactly what i do! Except i used dawn liquid soap last time. The filters dry so fast too. R2c ftw

Installed mine today and the butt dyno shows increase. Filters looked ready for replacement anyways. As for sound, no difference as my catback muffles any sound there is.

I've been trying to buy these and can't find them in stock anywhere. I placed an order over 6 weeks ago and still waiting.
