Oh yeah, and if you're looking for cheap performance gains, just start ripping things out of the car. HP/weight ratio is all that matters, so lose those 75+ lb. power seats pronto!

Andre,

You had me worried; what do you think about these claims?

I'd prefer top see a third-party test, but it seems reasonable that concerns are limited.

I checked and my friends have not had any problems with the MAF sensors. I think it is more of an urban myth.

That blue thing you posted a pic of is a BASS TUBE... something that looks like a NO2 bottle but is actually a speaker.

Nice try though?

As long as you get it

It's good to see K&N standing behind their product, but I still would not use their product based on their questionable gains, and their inferior filtering.

+1

#1 Even if a K&N can flow more air, stock air filters flow more than enough air for stock power.
#2 How do K&N filters flow more air? By letting more of everything in. Less filtering = more air, but also more junk. I like to keep junk out.
