how do you figure?
theyre basically the same exact thing except that the turbo5 one bends 180 degrees. the hks unit comes with a heat shield, just like the turbo5. just like the turbo5, you can use the upper plastic cover and the oem "ram air" hose.
basically every open element filter sucks in hot air. theres no judging which one is better or worse than the other. theyre all crap..
the only intake i think is better than the oem one is the one on dmak's car. its a totally enclosed carbon fiber unit with a ram air duck going to the bottom of the car, which means it takes in cold air from the bottom of the car.
i have the hks unit with a different filter element. ive incorporated a bunch of little custom thingies like ducts in the wheel well, dryer hose from the bottom, the oem lid, oem ram air pipe, ive even pulled the rubber weather strip ontop of the headlight. its just not worth it.
