Im looking into buy a air filter and there are some made by flying performance that are quite cheap is there a reason for this? and do i need to get an airflow meter as well? or should i jus get the uas one with the intake pipe?
thanks

flyn are a reseller they don't make anything

(off ebay right )...
with airfilters you pay for what you get... cheap can actually be worse than an oem paper filter
is yours a GR or MIVEC???

the stock paper element actually provides better filtration than K and N filters. So taking that into consideration not many aftermarket filters so as a good job as the stocky filter element.

so why spend money on a new intake and filter from uas? if it doesnt protect you engine as much?

because unless you drive on dirt roads i would prefer the performance over the filtration

ive always thought paper oiled' air filters give you better filtration then the stock elements...
