i wouldnt expect these to put out as much as the stillens(that i odubt will put out as much as they say) but this filter element itself is still the best to date. It wil protect your engine like no other filter while guving you good gains,sound and looks, just looking and the quality of these says it all, and looking at the heatshields and the way that they will competely seal with the hood is also nice.

The tsillen has a nice design but bad filters, hydrolock problems(maybe in heavy rain) , and PITA install.

Again not trying to bash either company, just the fact that for each their own...

G/L on your descision

I received an e-mail from Ed today asking my address, I will let you know if that means that they chosen me to test fit the Filters for the Pop-chargers.

Whistle??? Hum, I wonder if it's because of the mesh net on the filter. Now that would be nice, I've always wanted a turbine car since batman in the 70's. Do play us a tune asap!

Well, I just received another e-mail telling me that they will come via UPS, so yes, I think it's the first time in my life that I'm that lucky.

I hope that it fits perfectly, I like a LOT the idea of no oiling, so that will be my only interest in changing the filters, so far my JWT has been just great, but if I can do something to make them better, WELCOME.

No oiling, easier and faster cleaning, AND your not risking contaminates entering your engine with the benifits of that being less damage/wear or oil sludge build up.

I'd like to hear them in the car accelerating, that's where we'll be listening to it. Sounds pretty close to the pop charger outside.

Still in development, latest word was they just made an improved filter that required a heatshield modification. Tomek350z lives near them and had a early build, they aren't generally available yet, ETA for shipping <2 weeks.

I received my "test fit" filters for the JWT pop-chargers, I will try to install tonight or early tomorrow, expect pictures, possible videos and of course my opinion about them soon after that.
