it's just a MAF adaptor and a filter. it should work on the KA as well (no guarantees though)

food for thought: the stainless filter is only good to 100 microns. most filters are fine enough to sift through 10-20 microns. this means a lot of dusty crap is going to get in your motor....

blitz sucks for filtration. good power i think, but you are running a larger risk

get apex filters. might not make as MUCH power as another but the best of both worlds (filtration and power).

dousan, get your facts straight

the Blitz LM is almost a direct copy of the A'pexi. It's a dry element with excellent filtration capabilities. Either one of those will be my next filter of choice.

in general i've never been impressed w/ blitz stuff.

apex imho has much more to offer tuning wise and technology wise

but this is a personal opinion!

Link to a translation of the filter test as found in revspeed.

Some have murmured that the test was actually paid off by Apex'i in order for them to skew the results in their favor. I think the original article appeared in a pullout section that was sponsored by Apex.

If you have an NA KA, you'll want either an AEM or Injen intake...the Apex'i is also just an adaptor and a filter. You gotta remember that the peeps in JDM-land don't have much need for making NA parts for the KA24.

Options Auto for $71.00(K&N, AEM, Blitz, HKS, and Greddy filters cost about the same if not more than the A'PEXi filter)

71 is pretty good from what i've seen, but price vs performance...I'll go pick up a k&n.

muzzy, I think those sites saying 92-94 are incorrect. There are no differences in the way of intakes between the 91 and the later s13...unless it's some weird thing that has never ever been talked about and injen was smart enough to correct for and aem couldn't. So yeah, those sites are wrong...
