Q & N?

I have no problems with my K & N......like I told you already...

[badmanbopeep]

personally i dont think its worth the headache.
an air filter is supposed to be changed out when changing oil, lets say 3000km.
i use synthetic oil (royal purple), so i change oil at 15000km
i use a FRAM extended life (goes up to 20000km), so i use 1 filter instead of 3 (1 fram much cheaper than 3 whatever-brand)
IT BEATS HAVING TO TAKE OUT A K&N AND CLEAN AND REPLACE IT. (bear in mind, cleaning kits for these filters still costs $$. and even if u dont use one of the special k&n cleaning kits, it still takes time out of my day to have to remove, clean and replace it)
i PERSONALLY think its not worth it.....

I have paranoia problems when it comes to oil-ed AIR filters and how much dirt they can let through. Take a look at forums like Bobistheoilguy.com - they show that silica content in used oil goes up with free flow filters like the K&N.

More silica = mor dirt bypassing filter = more wear on engine

And panel filters give like what.... 0.5 hp gains? I'll stay with the stock or AEM dryflow filter...thanks.
