Air filter K&N or Fram

K&N Air filter

After I swapped to a K&N drop-in filter and a lighter cat-back exhaust (the one I had was lighter than the stock), I was getting around 22-24 MPG with my EcoBoost.

Pros: better MPG, lighter than stock
Vehicle: Ford Mustang

I just put in the K&N drop in air filter and I notice surprisingly large throttle response. It almost makes the ascent feel like a lighter vehicle.

Pros: better throttle response

There was a "performance" K&N filter and lots of detritus in the bottom of the air box I scrubbed down the box, and it is looking fresh. Except for the super greasy valve covers and rest of the engine bay. Oh, and I'm getting rid of the K&N filter--never been a fan.

Pros: scrubbed down box, looking fresh
Cons: never been a fan
Vehicle: Audi A4

Removed the K&Ns for some new paper filters. It'll suck to lose the 10% horsepower gain but I'll try not to die trying to pass Ford Flex's on the highway without it. The air box had a bunch of dirt/scum so I cleaned that out too.

Cons: lose 10% horsepower gain

In my experience they are a waste of money with risk of fouling MAF sensor. I’ve tried them in my diesels and gassers. I never once wasted my time cleaning and re-oiling a K&N. I just threw it out and went back to OEM.

Cons: waste of money, risk of fouling MAF sensor, not worth cleaning/re-oiling
