K&N intake kit

[spetz]

I was thinking of purchasing a k&n air intake kit. The one that replaces everything after the throttle body. It guarantees atleast 6.9 hp to the rear wheels. Is their any better option than a k&n? Is it going to make my car run lean?

I just have a drop in K&N because I didn't want to mess with a install replacement. But I would say if you get it done, get it done professionally unless you know what you are doing.

I have a K&N CAI and it works great it was easy to install took about an hour the first time and it get 2mpg better gas millage. There is nothing wrng with the K&N stuff it works great. So do the one on Ebay that are 100$ cheaper so look at those first. And after you are done putting the filter on disconnect the battery or you could have it disconnected when you work. That is going to reset the computer and cinfigure it with the new K&N filter when you plug it back in.

Ebay CAI's work the same, if you have a 2001-2004, you have to get something to plug an extra hole in it, and if you live in California, you have to put the stock intake back on every Smog test. K&N, Mac, BBK, etc all have CARB numbers so they will pass testing. Other than that, it's not 6hp peak gains, it's just at some point on the dyno, there was a gain of 6hp, which for my car that gain was on the lower end. Actual peak hp was barely even higher.

Thanks alot I think I'm going to go with the k&n. I'll probably get it from advanced auto parts. I have some issues with ebay and the extra plug I need for the 03' will come with it.
