In my observation, the K&N FIPK had a noticeable power feel and increased throttle response when combined with a performance tune.
What do you all think of the K&N FIPK?
- Thread starter 02GTdroptop
- Start date
I put in both the FIPK and my 75mm throttle body and C&L upper plenum at the same time. I noticed a bit of a better throttle response but not sure which one caused that but I think it was more throttle body than anything else.
I like my FIPK for looks if anything else. I'll be SCing this Christmas...

They are easy to install & look great.The filter is easy to maintain.The FIPK are quailty kits. I had one on my 02 before the blower.
I got it from Summit.

I like mine. Even if it doesn't give big power gains, it does give a nice deep sound at higher rpm's.
Fipk
I have the FIPK and the only thing i dont like is the exposure to the heat under the hood. I felt the filter the other day and it was pretty warm. The cooler the air is coming in the more horsepower. The ones that have the 90 degree bend screws the MAF. I am looking at building a box for mine.

i like mine..along with my mgw it was the first thing i did...ive got an 02 convertible also. IMO it does open up the rev's a bit around 3000 on up to 4000 or so. like the looks and sound also. im may be getting a TB/ Plen combo next so it should compliment those as well.

I can't get it up......ok that didn't sound right.
I believe trinity_gt gained 9.3rwhp with his K&N FIPK setup on a relatively stock car. I have the K&N FIPK setup on my GT and I love it.
Dont buy the thing I wasted $170 on mine.My air intake temp was 140 degrees on hot days. Got the demolet and and its never over 100 degrees. Do not buy any engine bay mounted filter. Its good for about 10 minutes of driving.Get something that is inside the fender. The temps are facts with datalogging. Dont waste your money.
just covering all bases there Matlock, not everyone has your level of top notch quality expertise on this subjectGT JAY said:Ya think.Duh not $hit Sherlock. I was simply stating that on a Power adder car you will get more out of one than on a N/A car. Boy people are getting touchy and awfuly fast with their fingers around here.
as for the intake, as most have already said and you already know they won't add much power but the fipk is probably the best quality kit you can buy

I am only seeing 140 act's on hot days with a roots supercharger, and that is with the sensor after the sc. Yours must not have been sealing good.
