There was a comparison done on air filters a while back and this filter came out on top...above K&N, Blitz, etc. That's why I decided on getting this air filter for my car, but Apexi doesn't make an application for the SC300, so I had to get a custom adapter made by a friend who works at a very reputable shop. This filter alone is $89. The custom adapter fabrication would cost a lot extra, depending on where you go. If I remember correctly, it took about 3 hours to make!

Here is more info on the filter:

Here are links with info on the comparison.

I would like $80 + shipping for the filter with the adapter. This filter is a dry filter, so you never need to oil it or clean it. I decided on selling it because I need some extra money for Christmas. email me at mr_h_liang@hotmail.com if interested

 

Where in CA are you located?

 

LA, near UCLA

 

it looks like it will fit a sc400 , correct? how much is shippin to houston, tx, 77041 zip and do you accept paypal? thanks

 

it should fit the sc400 if the bolt pattern and spacing is the same on the maf. the filter is still on my car, so i don't know the weight of it to calculate shipping costs just yet. i would think maybe about $15? but i'm not sure.

 

does it change the tone/sound of the car at all? what is the hp gain(if any)? does it need a heat sheild?
would you ship to NY?

 

the sound of the car isn't changed too significantly. it sounds like a vacuum in under my hood at idle and when i stomp on it, it roars a little, but not REALLY loud. i've never dynoed my car, so i don't know about hp gains. and i would think a heat shield would help if you can get your hands on one or if you want to make your own.
