Now you will be safe in the knowledge you have fitted a SMALLER surface area of what K&N claim incorrectly to be a "filter". It has bigger holes, you can see daylight through a K&N. They DO NOT FILTER to the standard required by modern engines and will look like you have shotblasted the engine and turbo on new cars. They add *NO* extra power to ANY engine. They decrease performance by doing away with the original airbox - deisgned for max air speed&flow&pressure. LEARN ABOUT CARS & ENGINES!

@urbex2007 Well the DYNO results say other wise but thanks for your thoughts.

[bored524]

did you have to remove the bumper to install the intake?

[jeb496]

@bored524 No

@urbex2007 You need to learn, see my above comment about MAF's you clearly do not have a clue. They can increase performance if used correctly, Cold air intakes (CAI) reduce the intake temp. Cold air is denser and therefore produces more power for a load of reasons. Also many cars are remapped and alot of stock intakes will not provide enough flow. I had a Golf GTI turbo with a remap, so I went from 12psi to 22psi peak boost. Do you think the stock air box would suffice?

@elijahinky how often should you re oil the filter ? or should you just buy a new filter and get it over with ?

[Vettes4lyfe]

Will everyone stop bickering LOL. A CAI alone will get you 0-5 horsepower nothing noticeable.. a meaner sound, and can actually DROP the engine temp. which is more important then 5 horsepower.. SECOND! If your smart you'd realise sticking a 300$ intake on there wont do much shit. When your stock exhaust manifold still has more back pressure then your sucking in now. NOW, if you cam it, stroke it, put some headers and an CAI. THEN you will gain some major power. It works. if you do it right.

@TheNicklas91 I call my dick big, but what does that matter. smarten up dumbass

[azrial4421]

I bought one cause I thought Id be getting better performance and MPG. Honda tech told me the stock is made to suck in cold air and is more expensive to use then the design most "performance" intakes use. Kinda makes sense if you compare, I think the extra noise makes people think their getting something, but tcheck out the dyna tests

@urbex2007 this is right and wrong. It can be used correctly and filter just fine while increasing air flow. If not used correctly, meaning not cleaning it every few weeks, u can screw your engine. That and if water gets near it, you are fucked.. I'd keep the stock intake lol.

@urbex2007 oh wow you are a jack ass u should kill your self

@urbex2007 COCK..!!!

[TheNicklas91]

@urbex2007 you know absolutely nothing about cars do you???!! it´s a milliondollar industry so don´t you think they do ALOT of research just to call it a performancefilter?... Dumass...

[jarrus464]

@cfyung85

you'd be supprised, in a standard intake system the air filter itself is the least restrictive part,

Paper is the best filtation medium on the mass market for cars, better than cotton or foam, if you buy a drop in aftermarket airfilter for you standard system you will gain 0hp and 0 torque across the whole rev range.

the reason why these kits gain power is because the pipework gets changed.

@urbex2007 You're a Tard.. Ever hear of an DYNO??
