Dear sirs,

In 1996 I bought a new Chevy S-10 pickup with the Vortec V-6.  Shortly afterwards I purchased a K&N Air Filter and installed it.  The airbox on my truck had NOT been opened since 1996.  Last week, after 131,000 miles I opened the airbox and removed the filter for the first time in TEN years!!  It was pretty nasty on the bottom, but still looked perfect on top.  My truck was/is still getting the exact same mileage as it did when it was new.  Using the Filtercharger kit, I cleaned and re-oiled the filter and put it back in.  I look forward to ten more years of service from this filter, and I assure you I have your products in every motor vehicle that I care about!

2002 Nissan Xterra

I just finished my first tank of gas on my K & N air filter and I got 34 more miles out of my 2002 Nissan Xterra.  It makes my truck have a deeper and sexier growl and she is much faster at acceleration.  But the best is that gas savings.  I love it.  Thank you for making a great product.

K&N on Fiat 132 1600

Hi, I recently installed a K&N Custom Filter on my Fiat 132 1600.  This car is 27 years old and has done close to 100,000 Km.  The performance of the car improved tremendously and the old girl now touches 160 Kmph without any problem.  The manifold sound is simply awesome and send those Japanese sedans flouting a huge exhaust into a trance.

I just wanted to compliment you on the knfilters.com site.  It's amazing to me how many large companies have bad web sites.  As a former web developer I appreciate your efforts.

I was looking for oil filter info for a specific motorcycle and found what I needed in 10 seconds.  That is very impressive for any site related to the motorcycle industry!

FIPK Gen 2

Hello,
    I just thought I would drop you a note to tell you what a change my newly installed FIPK Gen 2 has made.  I can feel the difference in the acceleration.  It is a noticeable difference in the performance and fuel efficiency.  It is installed on a 2001 Honda Civic LX Sedan.  Thanks for making a great product.

K&N Air Filters Praise!!!

Just another one of those "You're Filter Rocks!!!" e-mails.  I'm sure with the quality of product that you make, you get tons of these.  Anyway, I have a 1988 Mazda RX-7 with one of your air filters on it and I noticed immediate increases in power, Average MPG, and just in general less wear and tear on my old rotary engine (now proudly sitting in my driveway with 200,200 miles on it).  My engine is still in great condition thanks to in no small part my mechanic, and K&N for the great products they make to ensure the average Joe can afford to keep the car they love in great working condition.  Whether you drive a suped up sports car, a classic piece of American muscle, or your soccer mom (no offense soccer dads) mini-van, K&N can help anyone ensure they get the most out of their engine.

One more thing I would like to thank you for is availability of your product.  Replacement filters, cleaning kits, and other necessary parts are located EVERYWHERE, which makes maintaining this system a breeze.

Dear K&N~

My name is Adam Hanson.  I have been using your products on all my trucks since I turned 16.  K&N filters, and air intake kits do everything they say they will and more.  I recently bought a 2002 Ford Ranger ext cab short box 4x4 offroad.  It has the 4.0L SOHC V6.  The first thing I bought for it was a K&N air filter.  Before I installed it I wanted to see what difference it would make.  I drove the truck for the first week with the stock filter, and averaged 17mpg.  After I installed your filter I was averaging 19mpg.  2 more mpg will save me a lot of money, and the filter will pay for itself in no time.  Awesome!!!!!  I recommend K&N filters to all my friends, and customers at work.  I work for Red Rooster Auto Parts store in Crystal, MN.

Hello,
   I recently installed a "Fuel Injection Performance Kit Gen2" in my 2002 Ford F150 4.6L V8.  I am very happy with the results.  I can feel and hear the difference when accelerating.  Very nice. :)  I have no experience as a mechanic, yet I was able to follow the instructions and install it in a couple of hours.

Great product, Thanks!

Hello,
     I would like to thank K&N for providing me with such a brilliant air filter.  I never knew that just an air filter could bring about such a drastic change in performance.  But thanks to K&N I am experiencing it today and my bike is more peppier and powerful than before.  It is a 150cc bike (150cc Bajaj Pulsar DTSI) but is able to tail a 250cc bike....

Dear K&N,

You make a great product.  I've had 2 K&N filters, one on my 2002 VW Golf and also on my 2002 Honda Civic EX.  I've seen 2 mpg improvement in both in my cars.  Hope I can soon buy the cold air in my Civic which I hear great reviews.

Hello
Installing a K & N air filter in my 1994 Toyota RAV4 (3-door) has definitely given the old girl more 'get up and go'.  She also runs smoother and quieter.  One of the best value for money performance upgrades anyone can do to their 'wheels'.  Thanks K & N!

Yowza!!!

Hi there. Just wanted to share my experience with you folks and everyone else who's reading these testimonials that are on the fence about whether or not to purchase a kit.

I just installed a K&N AIRCHARGER (kit 63-3031) on my two week old 2006 Chevy Silverado 2500HD 6.0L/V-8, and immediately took it for a test drive.  All I can say is..."WOW!!!" The BEAST has been released!  It's a completely different truck.  It's got better throttle response, it's quicker off the line, and it definitely has more horse power/pull, especially in the mid to high rpm range which is great when I'll be towing our travel trailer.  Not to mention mention the lower/throatier exhaust note. I LOVE IT!

I had the system delivered to my door for $228.31 and it's worth every penny and then some!  $228 bucks for an added 20HP!!!  That translates into a little over $11 bucks per added pony.  A small price to pay for the enhanced performance and the potential fuel savings.

Thank you K&N for an awesome product!

Dear K&N,

I have been using K&N brand filters since 1997 when I installed my first on my Dodge Neon.  Wow was the reaction I received then and it remains that way to date.  I have now installed K&N filters on all of my families cars and are now moving on to friends, neighbors, and anybody who complains of performance in their car.  The most amazing Install was probably on a 1990 Ford Mustang 4 cylinder.  It had lost it’s get up and go and with a bit of pipe and a K&N filter it was renewed.  The owner paid me for telling him about it.

Keep up the great work.

K&N,
     When I purchased my 1978 Dodge Diplomat Medallion, 2-Door w/318 2brrl lean burn w/62000 miles last summer, the first thing I did was buy a K&N Air Filter for it.  I noticed a difference right away, power at the pedal was quick and smooth, whether I chomped on it or drove it like grandma.  Plus, a healthy air transfer sound was evident, as well, at the carburetor with the air cleaner on and sealed.  Later that summer on a long trip to Carlisle, PA's Mopar Nationals event, I got 30 MPG.  That is really unheard of for many Diplomat and 318 owners, just read the web.  Many get up to 22 MPG highway.  With the help from K&N my Diplomat easily gets 25 MPG highway, on average.  Which, with rising gas prices, is really great for an eight cylinder engine!  Some newer cars don't even get that kind of mileage, and they have a lighter body, smaller wheel base, smaller engines.  I recently purchased a K&N Oil Filter as well.  We will see how she does, but I am sure that the results will be comparable to the performance of the air filter.  That nut on the end of the filter came in handy with the tight space, and a short filter.  Thanks K&N for a great reusable air filter!

OH my!!

To all this may concern,
     Now there was a level of hesitation when I hit the “Enter” button to complete the order for a 63-3050 (AirCharger Air Intake) for my 2006 GMC Sierra ½ ton, but now let me tell you the story after I received it.
     My level of expertise working on an engine reaches only as far as an oil change and battery connections for my amplifier. This was EASY to Install.  It took me, from opening the box to starting the engine, 35 minutes to install and I was being very careful to not screw anything up.  By the way, there is really nothing you can do to screw the install up unless you lose a part or run something over.
     Anyway, after starting the engine I didn’t hear too much of a difference from my upgraded exhaust, but my exhaust is loud enough as it is anyway.  I took it on the freeway and WOW, the take off is amazing and the sound….  I tell you that there is very nice RUMBLE coming out from under my hood and resonating out of my exhaust..
     The sound/power is not the only thing.  I filled up my gas this morning and took the EXACT same route I take every morning to work, reset all my gauges to ensure accurate measurement and I couldn’t believe that I really gained just under 2MPG.  I was really, really skeptical about the claims of MPG gains so this almost blew me away.  I was getting 14.7 mpg to work and it went up to 16.5mpg.  That’s really good mileage for me due to the truck being lifted and with heavier tires.
     I am the average Joe that was looking for increases in my truck performance and this exceeded my expectations.  Again, I was a MAJOR skeptic and had the mindset of, “If this thing didn’t show me the slightest improvement I had no problem sending it back”, so I am proud to say that K&N took all the doubts away from me and it is a product I recommend to the folks that are reading these testimonials religiously before taking that big $250-$300 step just as I did.
     K&N all they away, these guys can correct this statement if I am wrong but I think that K&N are one of the true originators of intakes so this should tell everyone out there that they’ve got to be doing it RIGHT!!!!!

Dear K&N:

I installed the Fuel Injection Performance Kit (K&N #57-2553) on my 2003 Ford Crown Vic.

Boy does it sound MEAN!  It'd be worth it just for the sound alone, but the improvement in the throttle response of the engine was what I was really looking for and it did not disappoint.  The engine's performance now seems so "effortless" it isn't even funny.

I am not sure about any gas mileage improvement as yet because I haven't measured it, but it's probably there because with the increased performance there's less need to be sticking my foot into it all the time.

One unexpected improvement was that the kit seems also to have improved the car's handling.  Don't ask me how....it sounds odd, I know, but perhaps with a rear wheel drive car like the Crown Vic it just gives you some added control.  Even my brother said he thought so, too.

Thanks a lot for a great product!

You guys should make mufflers.

My feedback on K&N Filters

It has been 8 months since I purchased a K&N 33-2293 for my Mazda 3s, and from day 1 up until now the filter has given me excellent results!

Immediately after installation I saw a 3-4 mpg increase in fuel economy and and the engine revs much smoother and sounds more aggressive!

And now, 8 months later, I am typing this while my filter is drying from its first cleaning, and I can honestly say the the mpg increase, smoothness, and engine note are still here! The K&N filter's benefits have not dwindled!

Thanks, K&N for making a great product that delivers! I proudly display the K&N deal in my rear window!

Recently purchased a 2006 V6 4 Runner Sport Edition.  Love the truck but gas mileage and engine performance were just ok.  I was getting 18.5 to 19.5 in town if I was careful.  Just installed the K & N Air Charger System.  I'm not a great mechanic but still found it relatively simple with your directions.  It's hard for me to believe but gas mileage has increased to 23.5 to 24 if I can keep my foot out of it.  Love the engine sound.  Everything about the vehicle is smoother and with the price of gas this will pay for itself in no time.  The truck is quicker off the start and pulls much harder all the way through the power band.

You guys claim an increase of 9.5 HP but the seat of my pants say your selling yourself short.  Love the product.

Amazing filter

I have had my 1.3 Endura-e Ford Fiesta for many years and have enjoyed driving it since new.  At 30,000 miles, I did a nice big service and pondered over ways to improve it.  I fitted the K&N 57i induction kit 3 weeks ago and can't believe it.... My car has come alive with more torque, less revs in each gear, a lovely low growl and better fuel economy!  I have calculated an increase of an extra 4 mpg and that's in urban areas.  That's an extra 35 miles per tank of petrol.

My car sounds better, runs better and has re-kindled my passion for driving the lovely little Fiesta.  I can't believe I didn't fit this from the start, huge thumbs up to K&N!!!!!

Thanks for making such an awesome product for an '02 Olds Bravada.  I recently purchased a FIPK GEN II for my vehicle and all I can say is WOW!  THE POWER IS AWESOME.  THE SOUND IS UNBELIEVABLE.  The gas mileage actually even went up about 4 MPG.  In my vehicle that is about 70 miles per tank.  This item will pay for itself in no time.  Thank You, K&N for an awesome product.

To Whom It May Concern:
    I just wanted to drop you a line to let you know how pleased I am with your product!  I just had a 6” lift installed on my 2002 Chevy Silverado!  With the lift, it requires (that’s what I told my wife) larger tires.  I was slightly concerned with the drop in gas mileage (losing about 3 to 5mpg with 35’s) and the rep at the shop suggested a K&N Intake and Filter.  I was a bit skeptical, but had heard some good things about K&N, so I figured why not.  Well, the lift is complete, and to my surprise, I lost NO gas mileage, and there is a NOTICEABLE increase in power.  I was shocked.  I immediately went and purchased another one for my wife’s vehicle, and the same thing happened with hers – increased gas mileage (about 4 MPG), and more power.  Thanks K&N for a product that actually lives up to the advertising.

A VERY Satisfied Customer

Extremely happy customer

I chose a K & N filter for my 2002 Roadstar based on two things. The first being K & N's reputation and second the sleek appearance.  Along with exhaust and carb modifications my bike turned from a meek mouse to a screaming maniac.  I was a happy camper.

Last year the chrome began to peel from the cover after I hit it with high pressure water.  I contacted customer service and a very competent woman name Lisa handled my concern.  A week after sending Lisa a picture of the filter cover I received a new one free of charge.  I still feel the same about the product but I am now a lifelong committed owner of K & N products.

If you guys made toilet paper I would be the first to buy it.

K&N Testimonials
   Way to go K&N!!!!  I've just installed a FIPK on my 02 Chevy Z-71.  Very impressed with attention to detail from the installation process to the finished great sounding intake.  If I can restrain and keep my foot out of throttle, there is no doubt there will be a gas savings that will pay the cost of the FIPK.  The problem lies with the temptation of a cool sound of when you jump on the gas...

Hi ... I just recently purchased a K & N air filter for my 1996 Mitsubishi Galant.  I have to say I'm very impressed... Not only did my mileage increase <went from 25mpg on the highway to 31mpg> the car runs so much smoother. Thanks for making such a great product..

Ok K & N,
       So I've always been a skeptic about enhancements for my vehicle.  I just recently purchased an AirCharger (air intake) for my 05 Tacoma.  The throttle response is outstanding, it also added 40-50 miles a tank for me.  I'll make my money back in no time.  I did the calculation..the AirCharger will save me over $3,100 over the next 100,000 miles.  There is just no substitute for this product..

Thanks for the gas saver, it's needed now.

I recently sent in an email about the HP upgrades on my '02 Grand Am GT, now the gas mileage has increased. In a combo of highway and stop and go traffic, my car would normally get about 225 miles till empty.  Now after about a month and a half of having the filter in my car, I can now get 280 miles till empty.  Given the fact that its cost me $35 to fill it up @ 2.97 a gallon, this is remarkable!!!  Thanks again K&N for simple , affordable and quality products that AREN'T gimmicks!!!  Keep up the good work!!

If people want to know how really good your filters are, then read this.  I have had K & N on my motorcycle since 2001.  I have done 40,000 miles, replacing the oil filter after 4,000.  That is 10 filters from K & N.  At 40,000, the engine demands a strip down and overhaul.  The engine was in such good condition, they told me to bring it back when it has done 80,000.  They were simply amazed and all because of a good quality oil and oil filter… I do not buy elsewhere!

K & N helped my gas mileage

  I have a 1992 Nissan 4 cylinder pickup with over 240,000 miles on it.  I was averaging about 24 MPG with my paper filter, but the K&N helped me get over 28 MPG!  I recommend K&N air filters to everyone I meet.

Thank you.

Why don't BMW fit your filters as Standard?

To K&N Staff,
     I have just purchased 1 of your filters today, for my BMW 320 (2.2) 2001 which I have owned since new and it has never been that smooth with it's power delivery.  In the last 5 miles since I have installed your filter I have seen my car come to life, there is no pinking , no judder or delay, it is a shame that companies like BMW do not put quality performance equipment in their cars like your filters.

Well done K&N keep up the good work.

Dear K & N,
   I recently cleaned my K & N air filter and was very impressed with the K & N cleaning kit.  The air FilterCharger was purchased 3 - 4 - 1997 and has over 100,000 miles on it.  After I cleaned it, the filter looked and worked like new.  I will now have a K &N on every vehicle I own.

Thanks,

K and N Experience
I bought a 33-2128 panel filter for my 2001 Volkswagen GTI, and I felt an immediate increase in smoothness and acceleration.  The car no longer hesitates when accelerating hard.  Moreover, my fuel economy has increased from about 17 in city to 20 or 21 in city.

I bought a 2006 Nissan Quest 3.5S Special Edition in Feb.  Because the Van has a computer to calculate the average mpg, it changed my driving habit.  The Average MPG for the first 1880 miles, 20.8 mpg, was recorded by on-board computer.  After installed K&N filter and reset the computer by disconnecting battery ground line of the Quest VAN for 15 minutes, then reconnect, and drive for another 900 miles, my on-board computer shows average 23.3 mpg.  With the same driving style and commuting route, improvement is 12%.  I had traded in my 1995 Quest for this van and the 1995 Van's average mpg was raised from 19.5 to 20.5 mpg after using K&N filter as reported on October 26 2005.

I replaced my OEM filter with a K&N high flow filter in my new 2006 Elantra GLS last week and immediately noticed the difference.  Quicker acceleration and most of all a significant improvement in gas mileage.  My engine is running smoother and the transmission is shifting smoother.  I also noticed it gave my engine a nice sound.  When I hit cruising speed about 60mph on the highway it produces a nice whistle sound with a low roar to it.  Even when running the A/C I still get good acceleration.

Thanks

      A Couple of days ago I bought a K&N Air Filter for my 1998 Ford Explorer.  My old dirty paper air filter really needed to be replaced and I was tired of having to keep replacing it.  I had heard everywhere about K&N Air Filters and I thought I would give it a try.  I would actually be saving money if t worked.  And it did.  I could totally tell the difference in the acceleration mostly.  I was like wow- this product actually works.  So thank you.  Now because of this I’m thinking of buying some more of your products.

Dear K&N, I just installed your replacement air filter part # E-1009 for my 2003 Chevrolet Trailblazer LT 4.2L L6.  I am seeing improvements in all aspects of the word.  I am accelerating better when passing cars, and getting better gas mileage especially when gas prices are creeping up on a national average of $3 a gallon for regular. Thanks K&N

All I can say is wow.  I have a 1996 Land Rover Discovery se-7 these trucks are very durable and strong but gas consumption is not one of their good points.  Before I bought the K&N air filter I was getting about 13 mpg town and about 18 mpg Highway with stock Land Rover filters.  Once I bought the K&N air filter my results changed very much.  I now average 16 mpg town and 20-22 mpg highway and I have more horsepower plus on my truck I have 30" tires a steel bumper and steel wheels.  The K&N filters are the best.  My mom has one in her Range Rover and the mileage increased.  K&N makes the best air filters in the world BAR NONE.

Keep doing the good job!

After research through the internet, finally found a most recommended way to improve mileage and performance without major mod of the car that might void the warranty.  Then I tried it on my Acura EL (Japanese Honda Domani), significant improvement on mileage.  Now I am having K&N again on my new TSX.
Thank you for the great job!

Hi people,
    Just a few lines to say that I have the BEST combination of motoring satisfaction.   I have series 2 Jaguar with 355 Chevy power with a K&N air filter which gives 10% better economy and the K&N oil filter with nut style body takes the drama out of removal etc., besides longer engine oil life of about 16%.  Thanks K&N for value for money.  You are the best !!

I just installed a K&N FIPK 2 into my 2004 GMC Sierra 1500 with the 5.3L V8 and from the moment I installed it made a huge difference wise.  First of all, the performance was outstanding.  You could feel the kick as soon as I went out for the first time.  Man it moved great.  Next was the appearance.  It looked so good and freed up so much space in the engine compartment that I couldn’t believe it.  I can now get to the bottom of the engine near the radiator without taking anything out.  So far I am very pleased with this product and I am anxious to see what kind of fuel mileage that I get with this on.  Also the sound of this thing is not bad at all.  It actually is very quiet and will really only make noise when I get on it hard.  Very pleased with all your products and please keep up the good job.  This is the only product that I have seen that actually works and does not cost you an arm and a leg.  Thank you again and keep up the good work.

Great results with the AirCharger on my 05 Jeep Liberty 3.7L 4x4

I recently purchased the K&N air charger (air intake) kit for my 2005 Jeep Liberty 3.7L 4x4.  I’m not an auto mechanic by any means, so the very detailed installation instructions were perfect as I had the kit installed within the 90 minute estimated install time.  After the install, I took it for a drive and instantly noticed the additional power and the transmission seemed to be shifting much more smoothly now.  A few days after that, I pulled my ATV from NC to WV through the mountains.  When pulling up the big hills, I could really feel the difference in that the engine didn’t seem to work as hard.  If the engine downshifted, there was more power than before.  I had been tracking my gas mileage prior to the install and after the install.  Consumer Reports rated my Jeep in their “real” test as having 10 city and 22 highway.  Before the install, I was getting about 15-16 on my normal drive (no highway).  Now, I am getting 17-18 mpg.  That doesn’t sound like much, but just that much difference can add up to almost 40 more miles per tank (20 gallon tank). That’s a savings of over 2 gallons of gas per tank at $3.00/gallon which is about $6.00 per fill up! So, not only did I gain the extra power, I save money at the pump!

Fantastic Product!!!

I just wanted to say that your product is by way and a far the best I have used.  I own a 2005 Toyota Tacoma and installed your air filter.  I am seeing 30-40 more miles per tank than previously when I used the stock filter.  My truck has more off the line punch and runs smoother in daily driving.  I was so impressed with your product I just purchased a filter for my 2006 Polaris Hawkeye!!!  Thanks for building not only a quality product but a sensible one as well.

1992 BMW 320i

I have always used K&N air filters on all the vehicles I have owned.  Fitting a K&N air filter is the simplest and easiest way at instantly jumping up the enjoyment you get from driving your vehicle.  My latest vehicle is a BMW 320i 1992 E36.  I drove it around for four painful months with the standard paper filter and then the day came when I installed the K&N replacement panel filter.  Wow!!  What an immediate difference.  Now my BMW 320i feels more like a 325, very lively and responsive! I almost have to learn how do drive my car again.  The increased power and mpg are amazing from such a simple product.  My BMW now feels like a weird horse trying to leap forward at every opportunity.  Torque from low down revs right up to red line has jumped right up!  Cruising around, overtaking, off the lights and motorway driving have improved more than I thought possible!  My BMW 320i is now sheer pleasure to drive everyday!  Thanks K&N you have totally transformed my BMW 320i from a tame coupe into a very sporty coupe with improved fuel economy of up to 7-10% !!!  My K&N replacement panel filter will pay for itself within the next few months!!

Thank you,

Dear K&N; Being over 50 years old, I'm not easily impressed anymore.  Ya got me.. my 2000 Silverado 4x4 always got a maximum 350 miles on a tank of reg. gas.  I always reset my trip meter when filling up to keep track in case the gauge breaks.  Well I thought it had broken when I was 350 miles and still had almost 1/4 on gauge.  With emergency safe gas in back, decided to keep going. made 400 miles and didn't need the 26gal. to fill up, 24gal. did it.  Scratched head for a while, and went on.  Next tank, same thing.  What's going on?  Then it struck me.  I had replaced my stock air filter, which wasn't really that dirty, with a K&N that cost twice as much as a stock filter as a result of a floating Ping-Pong ball gizmo I saw at Advance Auto Parts a few weeks ago.  120,000 miles on truck with maintenance well kept up with, I thought.

1998 Blazer FIPK Testimonial

Hey K&N! Just wanted to let you guys know how happy I am with my recent FIPK purchase!

I've been using you filters since '89 on all my vehicles.  I finally got the chance to upgrade my Blazer to FIPK and what a difference over the stock airbox, the truck runs smoother than before.  Also, the gas mileage increase doesn't hurt, either!

Sincerely,

2005 Accord
Have used K&N Air filters since 2000 (my F150).  Installed one in my 2005 Accord 2.4L when I bought it new a year ago.  I’m getting around 34-35 mpg with plenty of pep.  Had put one in a 2003 Civic after running a paper filter for a while and noticed a 3 mpg increase (from 38 to 41)!  This product really works and works well.  More power, increased mpg, don’t understand why they’re not OEM on all cars,

Worth the Money
   I recently purchased a K&N Air Filter, and I am already a firm believer in this product and company!  I have an '02 Grand Am GT, which has a very strong 3.4L V6 under the hood!!  Ever since I installed the filter , this thing is even more of a monster!!!!  Putting in a full tank of gas would always make the car feel a little sluggish, but now it gets going like it would with a quarter tank!!  You can actually hear the air being taken in at full and part throttle.  This combined with Ram Air has made a good engine , great!!!!!  Installation is a snap and will take all of 5 to 10 minutes!!!!!!! 12 out 10!!!!!!

Just wanted to drop you all a note to say how happy I am with my new FIPK.  Had it installed in my 2003 Jeep Wrangler.  Man can she ever breath better now!  Thanks K&N!  Keep Up the good work.

Awesome filter
I purchased your direct replacement K&N filter for my 94 Jeep Cherokee.  I noticed an increase in both performance and I am close to the original factory fuel economy again considering the vehicle has over 240 thousand miles.  The sound from the filter box has also changed, giving the vehicle a deeper roar from under the hood when I step on the gas, really gets attention.  I am also an avid off road enthusiast and just love being able to remove the filter after a wet, dusty, or even muddy day of fun in the sun and clean it right up.  I have also notice that the inside of my intake hose leading to the TB remains cleaner than before, which really is a blessing with all the dirt and dust I put my Jeep through.  Thanks for a great product and I look forward to one of your more direct airflow systems.
