Its a in gaurd CAI set up man! you might want to do some reasearch before you say things like this the apexi is a non oiled pod and are very dangerous if you have them in the gaurd because of the fact that water can easily get in and so can alot of other stuff they are fine under the hood but not in gaurd like the aps kit is!

you have a GC8 which is equipped with an AFM sensitive to oil. oiled filters will ruin the AFM on a GC8 very quickly.
and driving with a crapped out AFM is bad, mmmkay.

Im aware of the bad AFM but alot of people said they have run it and it has been fine just regularly clean the AFM and clean the pod and do not over oil the pod.

Im not sure dont know much about HKS pods.

To my understanding you should never run a dry pod in the front gaurd as a cai set up because of the fact that water gets in there and could cause damage the oil pretects it so i hear. But if its under the hood in the bay its fine.
