Message	La-Z-Link I remember this test being posted about 5 years ago on this site, but havn't seen it since then. It is an independent test so it isn't swayed in anyone's favor to get a sale. I found this link with a little more details on the test to show how it was performed ect. Very handy test to know about. Please do also put into account though, that someone did say in a post (I believe SpecialtyZ) a while back that with this test, the JWT style filter was not oiled up like it should be so that did obviously scew results with filtration and power gained with that filter a little bit. Either way though, this test does help to show that the ONLY options to even consider as far as air filters go is either Apexi or JWT, and to not even consider using a foam style filter like HKS.
