K&N High Flow Performance Air Filter?

Question

I just ordered a K& N air filter for my Protege. I want to know if i will feel a difference in performance, MPG's(gas mileage) and how much of a horsepower/torque will i gain. By the way this is a replacement High flow performance air filter that goes in the stock air box.

heres the link to the filter http://www.knfilters.com/filtercharger.htm

Answer 1

If you feel anything at all it would hardly be noticeable. Most people who buy the K&N filters that go in the stock filter box buy them because they last 100,000 miles until K&N recommends cleaning them, so you dont have to spend $15 every 14,000 miles. If your looking for performance you have to get a CAI or SRI and a good cat back exhaust.

Answer 2

You will not notice any difference unless you drive with wide open throttle most of the time, your engine will ingest more dust though, K&N filters are somewhat less restrictive than factory filters, their filtering ability is the price you pay for this.  

Answer 3

NO, you won't feel the difference by just changing the filter.But you may gain a few horses. A few more MPG"s may be there though.

Answer 4

hi,,, the only difference you will feel is the savings you gave yourself by buying your last air filter ever.  but because your vehicle's air duck may have a restrictor in it,(if you didnt replace air duck with k&N ) you wont feel any difference in performance, mpg's or horsepwr. enjoy your cup of coffee due to the savings you made.

Answer 5

You probably won't notice any difference other than the air intake being a little louder.
