The dual funnel Power Intake evolved from the highly successful Super Intake. Subtle refinements in the design and filter element resulted in a 10 percent reduction in pressure drop. Utilizing an upper and lower funnel, the Power Intake reduces air turbul
The Apexi Power Intake is the premier air filter designed to create pure horsepower. The intake funnels used in racing machines take advantage of a characteristic where air travels along the side of the side of surfaces. However, the center portion of the funnel is virtually unused. It is this concept that gave birth to the Dual Funnel design. A primary funnel on the top portion of the air cleaner was inserted to channel the air flow directly into the lower funnels at the base of the cleaner. This design was a huge success on the former Super Intake model. The Power Intake took this design and improved the flow characteristics. New funnel design, element material and air flow channeling characteristics make the Power Intake one of the most efficient air cleaners on the market today. By constructing the upper and lower funnel from a highly durable injected resin, engineers were able to construct the ideal shaped funnel previously not possible with the stainless steel material. Funnel shapes focused on increasing air speed without changing the flow direction of the intake air. The result is a high speed and smooth flow of air into the intake. The lower funnel has been engineered at a 14 degree curve for maximum efficiency. Also, the lower funnel position has been made even closer to the base of the cleaner to reduce drag and eliminate any dead spots within the cleaner.
The Power Intake incorporates a newly developed material (layer filter of dry density fibers) which improves the element density. This allows maximum protection from foreign materials entering the engine. Compared with past model, the Power Intake has also succeeded in decreasing its ventilation resistance by about 10% (pressure loss) for maximum performance and protection. The Power Intake is dry-type filter and is trouble free. Some of the problems associated with wet type cleaners, such as oil sticking to the air flow meter, are a thing of the past. The Power Intake is basically maintenance free. Filter replacement, when necessary, can be done at a very low cost.
CONCEPT:
Air filter with minimal air-flow restriction
CHARACTERISTICS:
Dual funnel filter system minimizes intake turbulence
The APEX Aluminum Induction Box effectively shields the intake filter element from power robbing heat caused by turbocharged engines and extreme under the hood conditions. By fully enclosing the filter element and directing the intake air charge away from the heat soaked engine components, the APEX induction box helps prevent the ingestion of hot, preheated air from within the engine compartment. This reduction of intake air temperature promotes more efficient combustion, which in turn creates better performance and increased reliability. All components are manufactured by APEX to the highest standards to ensure precise fitment and maximum performance.
The Apexi Super Suction Kit is an intake adapter kit for hardcore enthusiasts wishing to convert their fuel injection system to D-Jetro (Pressure sensor type) or switch airflow meters with a higher capacity version from a different vehicle. This allows tuners to transcend the limitations of the factory fuel injection system and unleash the true power potential of their modified engine. The kit comes with a replacement intake pipe, filter, airflow meter clip (L-Jetro versions only) and all necessary hardware. D-Jetro versions require the installation of the separately sold pressure sensor, pressure sensor harness, intake air temp sensor and its corresponding harness
