I have desided on an apexi filter and hks high silencers.
Is there any other mods people would recommend to do. Eg uprated spark plugs.
Also i want to know with the hks exhaust is it a problem (Eg exhaust does not come out far enought) if you have a trd rear lip fitted??
Also if there any way of keeping engine cover ( Removing filter) if you fit an induction kit.

To be honest instead of the induction kit your better off fitting a K&N panel filter, unless you want the induction noise, the is200 airbox works very well as it is and with the K&N works even better than most induction kits you can buy? :thumbup1:

Uprated plugs for yours would be the IK20 only use the IK22 on supercharged cars?

Does it loss power with a induction kit??
Also other question i have is if you look at air cone to the right theres a box that sticks out (See pic below black circle around item in question) is this a air recirculation box (think they called that). And if so can it be removed as removed and blocked hole up on other cars before and they have revd alot more freely.

No mate you shouldn't lose anything by adding an induction kit really? but depends on which kit you go for? if the induction kit gets too hot then you'll lose the cold air that benefits the engine! so you need a kit that's away from the manifolds if possible to keep the heat soak down to a minimum :biggrin:

That may be an idea.
Does the hks exhaust come out far enough to line up with the trd rear lip or will it sit back in slightly??
As i think i read somewhere not made for cars with the kit.
