the apex new power filter is much better than all the other filters out in the market right now. althought they were expensive now the prices have gone down significally since they are now in the us market. go to ww.google.com and do a search for them, u should be able to get them shipped for 85-90 shipped. i went though a bunch of sites and cheapeast one was 80 shipped but forgot website. if you look hard enough you'll find it. personally I think if your old filter is in need of replacement, you mind as well get this . for 40 dollars more u'll get one that last longer and filters better and might even give you a few more ponies.
