what are peoples experience with k&n panel filters. are they good/no good. do they need other mods to work efectivly or what. what im gettin at is i just bought one and quite frankly its doesnt feel that much different to that of a standard panel filter.
cheers

they are not really a performence adding item.
they are a high flow washable filter. you will only notice a difference if your old filter was a big restriction. |

Try a search, you'll find plenty. But there just a fancy expensive reusable filter. DOn't expect to notice a difference.

I just put one in my EL Fairmont with the addition of an EL GT air intake snorkel. Noticed a good increase in throttle response and power. Also got rid of an annoying flat spot my car had under full throttle between 60-80km/hr.
It helps if you have a fresh engine(under 100000km and a large airbox like the EF/EL). The EA-ED airboxes are quite small, therefore smaller K&N filter (smaller surface area and smaller gains). Cheers Luke. |

Yeah i reckon it was a good buy when i put mine in. I also got way better fuel consumption. Way better response up high to. Also it is re-useable so never have to rerplace I thgought it was a great buy.
