Hi everyone,
Noob question, is there any difference if any in regards to the stage 1 carbonio intake from APR and ECS Tune?

Thanks

ECS is the largest APR distributor in the US.... but you won't get any warranty/support if you buy from overseas

you could try your luck, but i doubt ecs will ship apr products to Australia

All Carbonio intakes are same with same part number. You may even find one from Ebay too. But considering all exchange rate and shipping cost it may not worth the risk and trouble.

Good timing, this thread popping up!

I just installed this intake on my Tig this morning (the only difference is that i needed a small mounting bracket ($20) to mount the intake to the front of my car). The only trouble i had was compressing the spring clamp behind the MAF sensor when putting it all back together... Thanks to Lucas_R for coming to the rescue!

My question is how well does this type of filter work at actually filtering??
