Just get the drop-in K&N filter. I've popped one in my GSL-SE and noticed an increase in responsiveness. I won't claim horsepower gains, but the engine gets air as soon as it needs it, no lag.

I was also searching for a Filter upgrade for my 84 GSL-SE and I came across this site about a 2nd gen RX7 AFM (Air Flow Meter) into a GSL-SE They say it should give more air flow and some horsepower because of the intake path being much larger then the GSL-SE.



Also, using a K&N or a Racing Beat Foam filter will give you better air flow.

i got my hands on the hks filter adaptor, and a generic k&n cone, it actually made a big difference
