Would the fake hks filter live up to the real thing?

[triplexke]

Hey guys, need your help (again)! looking on www.funkyproducts.co.uk, i saw they sell a hks filter for about 105 pounds, and a copy of it for only 35 pounds... They claim it's the same size and material... What do you guys think? should i go for the fake one? for a third of the price, i'm thinking about it, but would like to know if you guys think it's worth the money...

Fake one: http://funkyproduct.co.uk/item_detail.php?prodID=281
real one: http://www.funkyproduct.co.uk/item_detail.php?prodID=760

Also, does the real hks filter set include everything i need, except the mas-connection thing? As far as i can tell it does, but would like to know for sure!

Thanks in advance, greetz Trip

is the evo filter the same size?, you can get them for £30ish second hand from the lancer site, refill foams are cheap

Go for it!. If mine hadn't come from Japan with a HKS fitted, I wouldn't pay that stupid price for a new one.
Let's face it, if you're really worried about the superior filtration properties of HKS then just buy a HKS replacement filter for £18 and trim to fit :D
