Hi, I just bought the Apexi Power filter intake, now got big problem, I want to install it, but the guy (ST powered) says need to go some where else to make a custom pipe adapter... due to the unique clamp head shape of the filter, now I'm stuck with the open pod filter and can't do anything. Would anybody know where I can install this along with heatshielding kind of box CAI? what would the cost be like? thanks... I want to try this against the simota aero form filter which I own have and do a comparison...

ok, great, thanks for the tips anyway... upon the sellers advice, I went to Fong Kim, corner shop along Ubi Ave 1 today to find the adapter and thus installed it then.

 

Results as compared to Simota AeroForm carbon filter heatshield + CAI - : throttle feels more loose, power is still there, but it feels like the power / torque is acting on a different range of speeds, more like the upper mid range of RPM. The lower end does feel as strong anymore, seems to breathe better, but I guess the hot air because

no more CAI... so breathing in engine heat & manifold heat. Looking to do a CAI solution, perhaps DIY like the last time, maybe I'll be too lazy and follow your Car Beauty tip. thanks. I like the look of it. It's pretty huge... the simota has got its own nice look also.

 

Met a BMW who was doing a Simota AeroForm.. that thing was BIG. huge huge...
