K&N Filters on HKS Intake?

I know what you are saying that has been the stereotype for a long time. Again just putting some info out there so people can make a more educated decision.

Both HKS types use more than 1 layer to trap particles of different sizes. Also their 3 layer doesn't use oil so there's no issue with that one. Again it depends on what you get from them. I have nothing against the other filters either, I've had other intakes besides HKS on other cars. I actually helped AEM recently letting them use my car so their washer bottle bracket would fit on the Nismo. I am running that at the moment.

Taken from the HKS site:

Quote:
HKS replacement Filter Elements are available in a dry 3-layer, triple density or wet 2-layer, dual density construction. The dry 3-layer type is standard in SMF Reloaded Intake kits, and is designed for superior filtration while still providing excellent airflow. The wet 2-layer type is included in Racing Suction kits and is focused on maximizing airflow for performance, yet still keeping harmful particles from the engine. If your vehicle is in a high dust area, HKS recommends using dry 3-layer elements.
I think the HKS intake with their filters or with another filter would be a good intake for JDW either way.
