I have been reading some amazing testimonies on the gas savings and improved hoesepower by switching to a K & N air filter. Has anyone used this product in their vette and does it really makes a hugh difference in performance? Also, is the K & N oil filter far superior to other brands?

 

brand new, i think the k&n will flow about as good as most of the other filters. but the others fall off very quickly, whereas the k&n will keep performing. and they're reusable, so its a no-brainer

 

I have had one on my 89 for over a year. Love it. Helps her breath better and is able to be cleaned, oiled and reused. Hope you enjoy!

 

i agree the k&n does work sometimes to well. in fact i got to clean it now. i also ran the airfoil a little while ago for the t.p.i and was happy with it

 

Hi:

I have had great luck and service with the K and N filters having one on my 72 Coupe with a 350 and in my Ford Ranger. In the Rangers case I picked up about 2 MPG! You may even want to check out the AMSOIL air filters, the new Ea's are a little cheaper than K and N's , and you don't have to wash them (see service life quote below from the AMSOIL website), and since I sell AMSOIL are excellent filters.

Hope this helps

I have used K&N on other vehicles & think they have a good product.
However, my 92 Vette has a BIG air filter & i have a hard time believing the filter is a restriction in the air intake system.
I have also heard of problems on cars that use a mass air flow sensor with oil from the filter migtrating onto the MAF sensor, (usually after a fliter cleaning & oiling) causing trouble codes & driveability problams.
This might be a concern on TPI cars.
