I'm familiar with the concept, but this is the first time I've seen this "green" brand. Anybody familiar with it?

Green is a good brand, I would brobably stay away from that eBay seller, though. xB (echo) and tC have different air filters. Look for 03+ corolla/matrix filter - these fit our airbox.

um, I am skeptical of the HP ratings he is giving it....

Any comments on that?

 

[zoltiz]

Don't expect anything more than K&N/TRD drop-ins, it's just a regular reusable higher flowing filter - no magic involved.

I have a TRD drop-in because I can clean it - saves me cash on paper filters, plus I already had a filter leftover from my Matrix, so why not reuse it...

used the green filter in my Z3. No issues regarding it. Don't expect to get any HP increase over the K&N. It is a good, reuseable filter and when I bought it, cheaper than K&N.

Cheers!

It's the same price as the TRD Filter on www.trdsparks.com and the shipping is the same. At least TRD is a known brand and you are secure with Sparks.

Just go out and get a K&N filter. It costs a little bit more, but you will never have to replace it, just clean it every 50,000 or so miles. Plus they give you a little boost in power.

what does the green color do if anything? or is it just a gimmic to distinguish themselves from everyone else?

Green filter is well known in other automotive circles. I bought mine direct.

Cheers!

It is how they distinguish themselves. Just like K&N is that orange color.

Thanks for the info... just what I needed to know.

I got a K&N for my car and it kinda rocks. It cleans the air anyway.
