Takeda attack with stillen air filter .. possible?

Is it the same size as the stillen ? If yes i want to do thi because i think one filter for both size looks bad for tuning

Hard to say - I’m not sure I could feel a difference, but there is more filter surface area with the 2 separate filers than the single takeda.

2 filters are also much easier to intasll since you don’t have to line up both sides so exactly

Did you have to cut down the pipes to fit the 2 filters on? I Saw the stillen filters are 13 inches long together vs the 10.5inches AFE filter it comes with. Curious how that works as I can get a deal on the AFE system, but thing Stillens performs better from what I've seen so far. Thank you sir

Waste of $ that could go to other mods. Buy Stillen is you want to do this or stick with AFE Takedas.

A little but there is a thought behind the single VS the dual.

Single filter the TB's fight for the same air, dual each TB has it's own path. This was reason I went that route and to "feel" a difference something changed

I've read that as well. I am worried I will upgrade to Takeda CAI and see no difference.

What is the gain? Butt dyno? Silly to get a takeda then get a pair of stillen filters after. If OP thinks there is a gain to be had ok then. Just saying it's just a total waste of time & $ albeit 50 is peanuts it's still wasted peanuts.

I'd have to go back and see but if I remember I gained on the dyno as well with the dual filters. I might be wrong but I read that the OP has the Takeda and asked out switching to dual filters from one :/.

An I didn't use Stillen filters, I grabbed a set at Advanced Auto I think they were 10 inch filters. I have tread somewhere about the swap I did.

This is exactly right. I don't know why this dude (AMVDQVC) is hating on a discussion. We get it. You want everyone to think the same as you. Would be interested if gains would be made switching to two filters. It would make sense in my mind

Definitely don’t have to cut the piping - and you can also do better than stillen filter size I believe, By getting longer single filters. I forget what size will fit, maybe 7” length?

I think the flexibility of not having to cut the radiator support with the easy install of 2 filters made it worth it for me.

That said, I did wind up cutting the radiator support anyway. Ha.
