K&N Air filter

I just spend the $50 on a K&N filter for my cars. Another $20 gets you the kit for cleaning and re-oiling. $70 for a filter and years worth of filter clean/renew cycles.

Pros: years worth of cycles

A K&N cold air filter will not hurt , as long as you are committed to regularly cleaning & oiling the filter.

Pros: will not hurt

Upgrade to a K&N filter and a recharge kit. With a washable filter, you simply pop it out, clean it, let it dry and apply the oil... Pop it back in the vehicle... Good to go! Guess what? You SAVED money!!

Pros: washable, saves money

P.S. this same Toyota dealership told me I needed a new air filter upon which I told him, “It’s a K&N...” he said oh, and walked back into the garage.

Pros: long-lasting, reusable

the only advantage to the k&n is the reusability. for actual filtration, oem paper filters are better. power differences, on these cars, i dont think you will see any differences unless you are pushing over 325hp

Pros: reusability
Cons: worse filtration than oem

I've been using a K&N for a few weeks. I haven't noticed any power gains, but the throttle response feels slightly quicker (this could be in my head, but who cares, I'm happy). No difference in fuel economy.

Pros: quicker throttle response
Cons: no power gains, no fuel economy difference

Air filter, I'd stay far far away from K&N, more flow = more dirt getting in and oil could mess up the MAF. Also, you are not going to gain anything.

Cons: more dirt, oil mess MAF

K&N filters are a scam. Anyone who installs them is a sucker. Anyone who recommends them is a rube who doesn't understand how their vehicle works.

If you care about your car, DO NOT install one of this shitty products.

THEY DO NOT MAKE MORE PERFORMANCE ON A STOCK OR NEAR-STOCK VEHICLE.

THEY ALSO DO NOT FILTER WORTH A CRAP.

YOU WILL NOT HELP YOUR ENGINE AND YOU WILL CAUSE EXCESSIVE WEAR.

Cons: scam, no performance gain, poor filtering, causes excessive wear
