So is this thing really that much better than the Hahn intake or is it all hype? Because I'm ready to order and now the K&N is like 30 bucks more than Hahn. I'm getting a custom tune soon so i need to buy one of these fast. Does the Hahn one sound just as good?

 

The underhood K&N will be easier to service than the Hahn. Same sound outside the car and it'll stay dryer.

 

I was informed k&n's next batch is being shipped out the week of the 5th.

 

Just bought one from the Ebay seller

Getting them in next week

Do we have to replace anything on these or do they come with good clamps and coupler?

Looks like my 2010 has the mounting place so hopefully it comes with the bracket

 

Thats what my ebay email said as well since I havn't got the one I bought for $230 yet! I'm excited to hear this thing once I get it and install it.

 

order submitted, ive been waiting along time for more spool and bpv noise

 

Okay soo I have a couple of questions before i go ahead and purchase... Has anybody thrown any codes at all? Also do i need to get a tune like you do with most every other intake. Also Whats with the bracket mounting piece. I mean I have a 2008 balt soo what do i need differently.
Thanks Sam

 

i think im going to order this thing friday off ebay and see how that works...

 

I've had mine on for about a month and a half as I purchased mine as soon as they were available,think there were thirty or so.Anyway its been great,no codes,cels,nothing,runs and sounds great.

 

Someone find me one for the $236 so I can get one. $306 is outside my budget!

 

Sell some plasma.

 

still working great i see what u mean about the spool n blow off. obvious even at very low throttle yes my maf is really really close... but its secure as F and not going n e where so im not worried about it.

 

Anyone in the second batch group get theirs yet?

 

Just to give a heads up, Fuel trims still fluctuate with temp and humidity changes. Today is a very humid and hot day... my ltft's went to -5.4%. Im pretty sure the big factory in the change is humidity.

I wonder how a tuned car copes with atmospheric changes?

oh and no -5.4% is a bad thing, lol. no CEL's to date.

and I ran a 14.02 @ 103.66mph at the track last friday. <- Im netting higher traps and faster E.T.'s!
2nd run I had was a 14.026 @ 102.5mph
3rd run was a 14.185 @ 104.04mph
here is a video from a crappy cell phone... you can hear the stock BPV at 0:06 after the tire squeel. This is against a stage 2 cobb tuned 08' wrx. I won :p

previous best time was a 14.28 @ 101.5mph.

 

Yep over 4,000 miles and NO CEL!!!

 

Nope, I'm on the second batch and mines hasn't shipped yet

 

im also on the second batch and nothing yet.

 

Awsome update.......Im still considering this as an option.
any ideas on the STFT's in the hotter weather?
Does anyone know the shifts in stock fuel trims? In weather changes etc......
Like your positioning on the filter put you to a point when it was cooler to about + - 3%
does stock move approx the same amount?

 

Okay I've been looking to buy this part for about 30 mins now, but when I go to K&N's website it shows it as cold air intake, but the photo looks identical to the picture shown by the OP.

Is part number 69-4518TTK indeed the Short Ram intake shown by the OP, or is this the pic shown by the OP considered a CAI, either way I want an Intake that has the filter in the engine bay not down like AEM's intake.

 

It's an SRI. That part number is correct.

 

Still waiting for mine as well!

 

would like to see some solid dyno numbers with the K&N intake, anyone have any?

 

They are all the same, filter is in the engine bay for this K&N part number. PM us, we can get you a discount.

 

ill be dynoing next week probably with my STG 1 and K&N unfortunately i dont have STG 1 dyno w/o k&n

 

yea i'd really like to see the numbers with this intake and if it screws with the MAF as much as the other intakes do.
