HKS Racing Suction Kit

has anyone seen this kit before? I saw it today and it looks really unique. I wonder if it would fit USDM Fits?

yeah iv seen it, i got the HKS SuperPowerFlow, but i like this Racing Suction better, but it wasnt in stock when i needed it. But I hear this has pretty good gains, I got a JDM by the way i think it will fit the USDM just get the 1.5L it will probably fit.
This intake is my next on the list. HKS RACING SUCTION

I talked to a guy who had one. He said that the price is worth it. I agree... only if I were rich.

Is this the one you have?

HKS Super Mega Flow Reloaded Kit Honda Fit <font color="#FF0000">Free Shipping</font>

I am seriously considering this intake because of the price. Anyone on the forum that actually has pics of this intake installed? How were the gains?

from my experiance... HKS makes the worst filters, they flow like ass and they pass alot of dirt into the intake... they don't filter great. someone on the supra forums did a test with alot of filters and the HKS was the worst. and for that low price on that HKS super mega flow, you get what you pay for.

the test for power of many different filters on a supra..

HKS filtered the worst and made the least amount of power.

HKS isn't that bad, IMHO.

Thanks for your input- I appreciate your opinion, as well as the supra owner's.

My experience is a little different. I've run an HKS Power Flow on my 1989 d16a6 motor for a little over 275,000 miles now (motor is currently at 340,000). I've tried different intake filters and got the same trap speeds if not lower. The motor still gets nearly 40mpg, has no signs of burning any oil between changes, and stills pulls a decent low 15 sec quarter mile (best was a 14.82, and this was at 225,000 miles). I clean the original two layer filter out when it is time for an air filter service, and just dry before re-installing.

So do you really think that if I ran a different filter for these past 15 years, my motor would make it tthis far without a rebuild? Who knows, all I know is that HKS is not as bad as you think.

just to clarify the one in the pic at the top is NOT the super mega flow. its the racing suction reloaded. dont buy the cheaper one and get upset when you just get a filter and adapter instead of the crazy piping.

lol, whatever helps you sleep t night. ive installed a suction kit on a EVO and it started to mess up his MAF, ive never had a HKS on a honda, but i have had there intake on alot of different cars and YOU ARE NOT suppose to reuse them or clean them, you have to replace the element.... greddy also had a similar filter to the mega flow and it was just as bad... foam filters just don't work on cars. best if they just stick to motorcross bikes and little gas RC cars.... laff
