You can now get a heat shield for the hks. Tdi do one. Hks Mugen Tegiwa cpl stay away from others IMO.im picking up my FN2 in the morning, want an induction kit for it. ive been looking at the pipercross (which has a heatshield) and k&n typhon (which has an enclose filter and cold air feed). not sure which to get but they are alot cheaper than the HKS kit....
The pipercross and k&n are both terrible, they will make your car worse. The HKS is a really good kit, heatsoak issues are only very minor, works well with the stock map too.im picking up my FN2 in the morning, want an induction kit for it. ive been looking at the pipercross (which has a heatshield) and k&n typhon (which has an enclose filter and cold air feed). not sure which to get but they are alot cheaper than the HKS kit....
they suffer from quite bad heat soak mate.whats so 'bad' about the pipercross and k&n kits then?...
Flatspots i'd imagine due to the intake interfering with the air flow over the sensor on the intake. I have the HKS RSK and it runs as smooth as stock with an immense noise. Not as loud as something like the Teigwa WP on a B16 but plenty loud enough.whats so 'bad' about the pipercross and k&n kits then?...
Its not so much the heatsoak issue as the HKS will also suffer from this.they suffer from quite bad heat soak mate.
You've got 3 options
1) Spend alot of money on a good induction mugen / gruppe m
2) Spend a moderate amount of money for a HKS RSK / CPL CAI and have a good induction that gives good noise and can produce gains when assembled with other mods
3) spend little amount of money on a poor induction which will sound nice (K&N) but won't give any gains, and also in hot weather you will notice suffers from terrible heatsoak!
