I’ve got the K&N filter in my 2015 500 Abarth and it works perfectly, no CELs
Owner reviews for air filter
I have one and it works perfectly. You wont get any more performance out of it really. Just better airflow to the turbo. That goes for any intake or filter upgrade. Its worth the $50 for the filter. Get the cleaning kit. Ive already washed it twice since getting it. So really it pays for itself within a few washes.
It is a bit of a pain to get in the first time. Its a little lose so it wants to fall out. Once its in. It swells to fit better. Then stays that way.
Cabin and Engine air filters are so easy to replace - took me 20 min and prob $40 in parts.
Hengst filter in the stock box. Generally stock is best for air filters and the classic paper filters work better at actually filtering out particulates than performance ones.
I've had mine for about 2+ years now, dropped a K&N air filter in it, uploaded a stage 3 tune from some dude he's in Florida somewhere also bought the K Tuner from him as well. This was after extensive YouTube research. My 2.0t is about .0134 seconds slower than a BMW M6 in the 1/4 mile. It's fast, very fast.
I'd just get some K&N air filter to get a bit more gas mileage and horsepower. This V8 is powerful already, in stock form.
My intake parts showed up yesterday and today. Here they are installed: Under normal driving conditions you’d never notice it’s there. Not until you go WOT and get up above 3-3500rpm does the lovely VR gurgle kick in. Can’t tell a difference in power from the butt dyno but I also wasn’t going WOT on stock intake right before I swapped it. I may get skippy and run some data logs and see what the MAF is reading. I will also report back after some normal driving what the fuel consumption change is, if any.
I recently replaced my filter with a K&N. I was hoping for a little more felt power and better fuel economy. I've had my 2010 Prius IV for 4 years and have put over 60k miles on it so I'm pretty "in tune" with it. I haven't noticed any difference in either area.
How is your local dealer charging 300$ for an air filter? That feels off to me, our filters cost maybe 60$ and we charge 29.95 install(CAD).
An extra $550. I asked what that included, and was shocked to hear air filter, cabin air filter and topping the brake fluid.
