Just thought I'd pass along my first impressions about your products. I bought a K&N air filter today from my local "auto" store for my 2004 F-150 Super Crew. I had to wait for two days for one to come in as my store was NIS. By the time I drove my truck approximately 25 miles to another part of town the filter's performance convinced me to buy another one for my daughter's F-150 Super Crew. So I stopped in at another location and bought the second filter for her truck. You guys have convinced me without a shadow of a doubt. thanks!

Hi There
Just thought I would drop a line from the other side of the planet (New Zealand), I have a K&N Pod filter fitted to my 4WD, and the other day while 4wding I managed to do a end over roll with a double sideway roll into a Pond, landing upside down, the whole vehicle was submerged. As a result the snorkel that is usually at the top is now buried in mud. As you would expect this caused the motor to ingest some water thru the K&N filter. I am now in the process of cleaning out everything including the filter. The water in the motor was clean and grit free, the intake pipe from filter to throttle body had crushed flat. I have just removed the filter from its housing and was astounded to see the outer completely clogged with mud, and the inside of the filter very clean. Your filters are great for air, but work equally well under water!! I have attached a couple of photos for you to look at.

          

Impressed,

Back in April I mentioned that I put one of your air filters in my 2004 f 150 telling that it worked great. Gas mileage was better and throttle response was noticeable. Well since then I decided to go all the way with your FIPK 2 intake system and wow...what a difference. Throttle response was amazing and I am now saving about 1/4 of a tank a week in gas. I didn't know that air flow could make such a difference! Thanks again

33-2031-2 for Sentra 1.6 - The result is magnificent. I can feel the difference immediately after I put it in. The car also feels lighter and less sluggish during pickup. As for fuel consumption still untested as I have just used it for less than a week. Regards,

MABUHAY!! I'm from the Philippines. I Own a 2004 Chevrolet Venture LT 3.0 V6 and a 2000 Ford Lynx GHIA 1.6 both fitted with K&N air filters. First on the Chevy venture on straight highways I achieve 11.63 km/l, on city driving (traffic) only 5.5 km/l but from the stock filter the fuel efficiency was only around 10 km/l on highways and 5 km/l on city driving. For the Ford Lynx the fuel efficiency was from 7 km/l to 8.2 km/l this was tested for 3000 km. This product is good in the sense that you won't replace filters anymore, it has great air flow, gives power and increase your mpg.. I recommend this to all car owners who love their cars.

Hi,
Just a quick note to thank you for the air filter for my Citroen C5 2.2 HDi. Fuel consumption was up to over 40mpg with much better throttle response and acceleration. It was just like getting into a different car, even my wife noticed the difference enough to comment on. No more sitting waiting for the world to go by, just jump on board.

Thanks

I bought your replacement filter for my 1996 Ford Explorer 4wd. The first thing I noticed was the increase in the engine power, and gas improvement. Before I installed it I was getting around 21 highway and after I installed it I was getting 25 mpg! I was so impressed after the first month I went out and bought the FIPK. I am IMPRESSED! This improved almost everything from fuel economy to sound to acceleration! It cut my 0-60 time from 8.2 seconds to 6.9 seconds! This is by far the BEST product I have EVER bought for my Explorer!

Thanks.

Just put in my K&N replacement filter for my 2004 Mazda 3S..the car was a hot performer before...now it is on fire!!!! The increase in performance is amazing, even with a light touch on the pedal....and with the first tank of gas after installation I had an increase in MPG of 10%....more go and less fuel...sounds like a winning combination for my Mazda and K&N....now we just put one in our Grand Am...can't wait to see the improvements.

I run K&N air filters in both of my auto's and have been getting excellent performance and mileage. When I purchased my Saturn new the same week I pulled the restrictive factory filter and replaced it with a K&N.

I have the generation 2 injection system (FIPK) on my 2001 Dodge diesel. My truck is dyno charted at 425 Hp and 850 ft/lbs torque and I just wanted to let K&N know how great I think the air filter is on my truck. Now I have a greater turbo boost, added Hp, greater air flow and sounds awesome helping the turbo breath. Thanks K&N

WOW!!!

After a few years of getting lousy gas mileage out of my 2002 Chevy Trailblazer LTZ, I finally listened to my father, who has been a loyal K&N customer for years. He had been telling me that I would most definitely see a considerable difference in fuel consumption. He was right! I installed your air filter in it three weeks ago, and instead of averaging 15 mpg (city and highway), I am now averaging 20.9 mpg. I was so happy that I put one in my 2002 Impala LS, and my 1997 Camry XLE. I guess the moral of my story is "father knows best". Thank you for making such a great product.

K&N-there is no substitute.
I've been a K&N filter user for a few years now, but it's my newest K&N purchase that deserves the spotlight and was/is well worth the money. My 02 Mustang GT Conv has just acquired a Generation II FIPK® kit and boy does it make a difference! The purchase experience was a nightmare due to "package tampering", but after 2 trips back to XYZ retailer, it all worked out. This unit, along with my "performance" mufflers, has put some serious kick in my pony's tail! Both performance items were added at the same time, so I'm unable to determine which part played the more dramatic increase role. But who can argue with a 10+HP gain just by using more air. And cleaner air at that! I've noticed extremely smooth acceleration and even smoother throttle lift-off. The car sounds better at idle, gave me a few more MPG's in 'normal' driving situations over the course of 400 miles this weekend...but more important of these perks is the instant throttle response and power you can feel from 1500-3500 rpm. And of course, the all out full throttle test is a no brainer. The car now screams in 2nd gear! Amazing. Like others on this message board, I've been reluctant about purchasing a major $ item like this...but know this: If you are interested in a simple, 40 minute horsepower gain without the headache that can plague many aftermarket parts.. BUY THIS PRODUCT! K&N knows filters and K&N has made horsepower accessible to anyone with a screwdriver.

I installed a K&N Air Filter in our 2003 Mini Cooper about 1 Year ago. What a difference it made. The hesitation that I had when I gave it the Gas is gone. The Gas Mileage, which was Great to begin with, also improved. I was so impressed that when we bought Our New 2005 Saturn Quad Cope Last week for our second Car I bought a K&N Air Filter for it & installed it the 3rd day after the purchase. Now our Mini & our Saturn have the Best Air Filter in them. The vehicle we traded in for the Saturn also had a K&N Filter. It is a Great Product. Thanks.

Four months ago I purchased a K&N 33-2069 as a replacement for the original equipment filter in my stock 1996 V.W. GTI and have been more than impressed with the difference in performance and mileage. There's a noticeable difference in engine performance, smoother idling, and more punch along the whole power band and especially when accelerating... even chirped the tires a few times when it had never done that before!!!!..What impressed me most was the increase in gas mileage... Am seriously considering getting a cone kit and when I do it will be K&N for sure. It will pay for itself in gas savings alone.... Truly a quality product... keep up the good work!!!!

To K&N,
Your air intakes really kick a##. It sounds to me like a another truck since the intake was installed. People the price is worth your dollars, it enhances the driving experience.

Just dropping a note to say, I have installed your 77-3023KP system on my 2003 Chevy Suburban 6.0L 3/4 4 wdr. and I have seen an improvement in gas mileage within the first 200 miles of driving. I'm at this point tickled with the increased fuel mileage, I'm looking for the long term return. lol. Thank you for the help in fighting the gas pump.

Dearest K&N,
I recently purchased a K&N air filter for my 1996 Ford Mustang GT (4.6L) and I must say that acceleration and HP has increased significantly.
I'm no stranger to K&N air filters because my first car had one and my father's Tundra and my mother's Camaro both have them.
I love it when I give it just a little gas and the crisp throttle answers with easiness. I put the pedal at WOT (wide open throttle) and to complement the dual mufflers, the intake noise of all that air gushes through the engine and air box. I am very pleased with the product and I'll stand behind it 100%!

My K&N
I just put a K&N on my '92 Corvette, which is otherwise stock outside of a performance chip. I sure wish I had before/after dyno numbers to quantify it, because I notice more of a difference with the filter than I did the chip! I don't race my car at the track, but I'm forever in the throttle on the street. And there's now a very noticeable difference in acceleration, especially at the initial throttle tip in. And after reading your other testimonials, I'm now looking forward to increased gas mileage as well. Thanks, K&N, for a GREAT product!

My K&N experience

After reading the other testimonials there isn't a whole lot more you can say. I am thoroughly impressed with your systems and filters.

I installed one of your kits on my 2003, F250 Super Duty with the 6.8L V10. I wanted better efficiency and gas mileage and your product supplied just that.

I have been impressed enough that I went and got one of your filters for my wife's Pathfinder and it too is showing better mileage along with running stronger.

Thanks for the chance to let others know how well your products work. I just wish I had starting using them sooner.

I have an FIPK on my 2003 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland (4.0 HO). To say I love it is a massive understatement. It improved my gas mileage overall. When I use the Overland to tow my 22' EdgeWater center console, the engine does not labor at all.

The sound when I start the engine and give it some throttle is a nice bonus, and it makes the engine compartment look great, too.

Thank you for making such a great product that actually does what you say it will, and then some.

Dear K&N,
I have had your filter in my 1999 Mustang V6 now for 1 month. From the first tank of gas I went from 17 to 23.14 mpg. I'm gonna get one for my 04 Escape now.

Thanks,

A couple of months ago I purchased and installed an air filter system on my 2002 Avalanche. I wrote back to you how impressed I was with the ease of installation and the very noticeable acceleration improvement. I was holding back on increase in gas mileage until I had taken a trip. Well, I've just returned from a round trip, from Seattle to Las Vegas and back. On my last trip I had gotten a high of 16.4 mpg. On this trip I had a high of 18.5 mpg! When I filled with gas in Seattle the price was $2.11 a gallon. Once on the road, in Oregon, California and Nevada, I paid an average of $2.56 and as high as $2.78 a gallon. So, as you can see, your system is already starting to save me money. Thanks a lot.
February 22, 2005
K&N, I picked up an intake kit for my 2002 Avalanche today. I'm not a mechanic by any means, but that conversion was a snap. Your instructions are excellent!  Took it out for a test drive.  Defiantly an improvement on acceleration.  Sounds Sounds like the hood's being sucked into the intake.  Time will tell on the mileage. I'm thinking....money well spent.

Just a brief note to say I have received my FIPK generation II system for my 2002 Intrepid R/T. I received the system Last Wednesday March 30 and installed it on Thursday March 31. It took maybe 20-30 mins. I have to say there is a noticeable difference in performance and sound, all very positive. Thursday evening I had a full car and people noticed the performance and remarked on it.

All in all I would say this was a very positive purchase.

cheers,

April 15, 2005
Well, I've been reading these testimonials for about a month now since my FIPK has been on backorder for a month and I just finally installed it tonight on my Grand Cherokee 4.0L L6. Only sticky part which I'm sure varies from diff vehicle to vehicle is the install. Just a lil tricky and tight but i did it in about an hour and a half give or take. My test drive was GREAT! I have a cat-back exhaust on so it was a lil hard to hear but I did hear the whistle under the roar from the exhaust. When people say on here about throttle response being spectacular, well "dang" they sure do mean it. This is one heck of a product, K&N. I recommend it to everyone!

Thanks again

Hi;
I have a 2005 Ford Escape XLT 4X4 with the 3.0L V6. It is a great SUV to begin with and your air filter made it even better. It has much better acceleration and the engine idles smoother, it starts faster and my gas mileage went up as well, I was only getting about 18 mpg without it and now I'm getting 22mpg in the city! I also have your oil filter as well and I believe that since your air and oil filters filter out more junk than regular filters it will increase the life of the engine.

Thanks,

A novel use for a K&N Filter
I use these filters in all my vehicles and wanted to use in my new lawnmower as well. But not available so made up a snorkel system to fit the Honda motor. In 2 years use, without cleaning, there is not a speck of dirt in the snorkel tube (Tested with a white cloth wipe-out). The filter is absolutely filthy. I feel it proves a point. The paper filter would be long past its use-by date. See attatched photos.

Just wanted to drop by and tell you guys how nice your filters worked for my 2004 F-150. A few people kept telling me how powerful your air filters were and so I decided to try it out. It probably is the best money I have spent on any accessory for my truck. The throttle response is amazing and I have noticed improved gas mileage. I can't believe that an air filter can do all of this and the best part is I don't have to buy another one ever! I can't wait to try the FIPK that you offer for my truck.

Received my K&N Filter today and couldn't wait to install it in my 1999 YAMAHA 350 WARRIOR. The filter came with a special plate that made installing the filter super easy. Also it came with different rubber inserts for re-jetted carburetors, truly superior engineering. Now the horsepower gain truly shocked me!!! My motorcycle is now truly FAST. Thank you very much for your intelligent engineering and best horsepower gain for the buck.

Hello K & N,
I am sort of tight when it comes to spending money. So I knew of your product for a number of years but didn't want to spend the money. We bought a '99 GMC Yukon and we tow our boat almost every weekend. I thought the 350 would do a better job. I was in a parts store and decided I would give it a shot and put one of your filters in there and what a MAJOR difference. You can just hear the air flowing through there when I'm towing the boat. Our mileage went up over 1 mpg towing the boat and the power is unreal. Thanks for the product. I hope more folks like me will consider the filter and not wait like I did.

I installed a K&N air filter in my 2002 Monte Carlo and let me tell you I definitely noticed a difference. The throttle response is much greater than before I put the filter in. I also love the fact that I won't have to replace it for a while. I just wanted to thank you guys for this and I'm going to buy your oil filter next time I change my oil. You guys are awesome.

Hello,
I always knew you guys made good filters, but me being more of a biker in India with a small 150 Ceecer, I never thought it would be of much help on my machine. Until I got frustrated of considering it and went ahead and bought myself one.
Waahoo! It really did it. I could feel the motor gain revs very easily. Since the single cylinder isn't one that can be exploited easily, there was no outstanding difference as such, but there most definitely was a difference, one that made me go he he. So great, thank your people for the ingenuity.
Please make yourself more available in India. There are hundreds more just like me out here.

Thanks again,

I just installed a K&N on my 05 Toyota Tacoma and I noticed the difference when I pulled out of the driveway. By the time I entered the freeway I could not take the stupid grin off my face. This has to be the best money I've dropped in my truck. Throttle response is immediate and pulling away from tail gaiters is a blast watching the shock on their face as your tail lights get smaller by the second..

K&N for life!
I first bought a K&N filter for a short ram intake on an 02 Dodge Stratus. The difference was amazing, and the savings on filter changes was great! I will only get K&N filters for all my vehicles from now on! If not for the added power, mileage, and performance (as if that wasn't enough!), then for the savings over traditional disposable filters! It's amazing! Thanks, K&N!

Chevy Trailblazer 2002 and Lexus RX300 1999 Performance Increase

Dear K&N,
Thank you for continuing to build such great products. I bought a filter for my 99 RX300 because it was getting bad gas mileage and horrible acceleration. Installed the K&N filter, and BAM!! Much better response and mileage. My 02 Trailblazer also felt the mileage increase. The extra power when towing is awesome. I was a skeptic at first, the filters seemed pricey, but as I look back, the extra money is money very well spent. Thank you K&N!!

I purchased a CA (cold air) kit for my 2003 Honda S2000 from "a retailer" in February. What a kit! The thorough instructions made for an easy installation, in about 2 hours we had the car back together and taking it for a "brisk" test drive. Every last piece needed was included the kit, every fitting and washer, I didn't have to make a parts run for anything!

Not only have I gained HP, but my mileage has gone from an average of 28.6 mpg to 29.4 mpg and with the 70 miles I drive round trip each day to work the gas savings will more than pay for the kit.

K&N's commitment to quality is second to none and I take pride in showing off my intake to everyone. Thank you for making such a great product.

I drive a 92' full-size Chevy Blazer. It's lifted and has a new beefed up engine, so you can imagine the need to conserve fuel. I had always wanted to try K&N air filters so I went out and bought one the other day. Wow! What a difference it has made. I could feel the change in response and increased power instantly. What an amazing product! And I never have to replace it. Can't wait to get the FIPK for my truck. I can always use more horsepower! Thanks again K&N!

I would like to thank you for building such great products. I recently purchased a 86 Jeep Grand Wagoneer with 110k miles and was getting 13 mpg on highway. I had used your products in the past so I added one to my new purchase. My first trip out my fuel economy improved from 13 to 16.5 mpg with the 5.9 engine. Thank you for saving my $10 on that trip alone. I will always use your product

What a product. First time user. 97 Chevy Suburban full size, Big engine, Big car... MPG prior to insulation, 12 -14 mph tops. After installed 17.3 mpg, at this rate with 5 tanks of gas, it will pay for itself. Horse power went up at least by 10-15... Just from an air filter change... Why did I wait.. On my 2nd car I also changed... 97 Toyota T-100... Power + was added... no mpg as yet, big performance change

Thanks K&N

Dear K&N, I just bought my first K&N filter last week for my 2002 Chevy Z71 ext. cab truck. 5300 engine. I was getting 16 mpg and had considered buying a tuner to increase my mileage. A friend recommended your filter first. I got 20 mpg at speeds of 60-65 mph. Forget the tuner, I am thrilled. Thanks a million!

February 25, 2005
I took my 2004 F-150 pickup in for its routine service. The air filter needed to be changed. I asked how much a new paper filter would be. They said $35.00. I was shocked because I change them out almost every time I change my oil. Then a friend turned me on to K&N. I figured I would give it a shot since I needed a new air filter anyway. WOW! I didn't expect anything other then whoopty doo, an air filter.... I could tell instantly how much more power my truck had. It had more zip to it than it usually does. I was shocked. I then went home and purchased one for my 2005 Chevy Tahoe. Just think, I could have spent $35.00 every other month for the next 4 or so years or just spend a few more dollars and never have to replace my air filter AGAIN! This is so well worth the money it's not even funny. K&N this is to a job well done. Amazing product! I will install a K&N filter on every vehicle I own for the rest of my life!

Thanks again!

My 2004 Subaru was purchased in 03' mid year. I had completely used up the factory filter. When it came time to replace, I decided to purchase a K & N OEM replacement filter. I do feel an increase in straight line power. The light to light times have decreased. The turbo spools up quicker and has an increase in boost. Not a great increase, but enough to notice on the gauge. It also holds the boost during the shifts better. I am very pleased with the out come of the OEM style replacement filter.

One more thing! Since I got the OEM filter. I was doing the registering of the item. While on the site, I noticed a few items that I did not know where out. Now I am going to upgrade again and go with the Typhoon kit. I will give stats when this goes down

Till then, best regards!

I am 15 so I don't have a car but, I have a quad, goped, and 2 golf carts with K&N air filters, and I just want to say how awesome these filters are! They defiantly add horsepower, and throttle response to my two stroke engines, and wouldn't use any other filter! Any engine or car I get will always have a K&N air filter on them because they are so dependable, add performance, get better mileage, and look great too. I just want to thank K&N for making such great filters, keep up the awesome work!!!

I recently fitted a K&N OEM replacement panel filter to my 2000 Volvo V70N T5. The car has been modified with a 300 bhp upgrade and I found that my average mpg using the OEM filter was between 24.5mpg and 25.5 mpg. I make regular 500 mile round trips to the English south coast, and found that previously I would average 29mpg using the OEM filter, driving the whole journey at motorway speed.

After fitting the K&N replacement filter I found my everyday mpg to be 26 to 27mpg under normal (occasionally spirited!) driving. My first trip to the south gave a fuel consumption of 31mpg. The throttle response seems to be noticeably sharper, and there is more willingness to the engine and the acceleration on-boost. With the extortionate price of petrol in the UK, even a 5% increase in fuel efficiency means that I save enough each month for your product to pay for itself in 5 months with my current monthly mileage.
An excellent product.

I have used K&N in most of the cars we have owned over the past 7 years and most recently installed one in my 2005 SAAB 9-2X. Besides the improved gas mileage (typically 1 mpg over a new stock filter), and the other benefits mentioned by other users, one area that it helps that no one mentions is protection from rodents! We live in a heavily wooded area, and before using K&Ns, I would often find that mice had made nests using the paper from conventional filters, thereby destroying engine protection provided by the air filter. Mice & chipmunks have really plagued our cars, even eating the top of the gas tank on my wife's new SAAB last spring. (not covered by warranty). They never seem to touch the K&Ns, even in my old MG that sits all week until I drive it on weekends. Must be the combination of a strong wire mesh protecting an oiled gauze that they find distasteful.

I have had my K&N filter in my 97' Dodge Dakota for over two years and I notice a major difference in get-up-n-go. I have gained about a whole mile per gallon difference. I went from an average of 183 miles per tank to 195 per tank. This is with just the OEM replacement from K&N. I can just imagine the difference if I replaced the air box and 3" intake with the K&N replacement kit would be. Before I first got the K&N air filter when I needed to accelerate real quick it took a whole second before my truck responded. However, after I put the K&N in it is almost instantaneous and still is.

Thanks K&N

Outstanding Product!!!
Hello - I am very impressed with this product. I put a K &N filter in my 2004 Mazda 6s 3.0 V6 over the weekend and I noticed an immediate difference in compression and horsepower. My daily commute includes a 40 mile highway sprint and the acceleration with the new filter was noticeably more spirited than before especially at passing speeds. I'm looking forward to seeing how the K&N filter affects my fuel efficiency. So far I'm very pleased with this product and I'm going to recommend it to my friends and family.

UPDATE - This thing is wonderful! I just ordered another one for my Wife's Mazda MPV minivan. Her vehicle has less horsepower and is geared a lot lower than my car. In a few months we are going to install a hitch mounted bike rack. I can't wait to see how the new air filter affects the low end torque. If the gain is anything like what I experienced in my car I estimate that the added air flow will at least negate the load created by the hitch, rack and bikes. Who would have thought an air filter could make such a big difference?

Thanks again!

Dear K&N,
I purchased one of these excellent filters from a local speed shop (unlimited motosports) in June of 2003. I own a 1988 Ford F-150, 2-wd with a 4.9L 300c.i. inline six. It has a 4 speed with overdrive manual transmission with electronic fuel injection. It only took about 2 hours from start to finish to install. I previously got 14 mpg, now with the K&N I get about 17 on the highway. This original Inline 6 has over 300,000 miles with no problems at all with the engine. When I rev. the engine to about 3,400RPM the intake makes an awesome rumble sound under the hood and acceleration is amazing. I can easily out accelerate my friends 91 Chevy shotbed pickup with a 305 HO V8. The filter isn't the only mod, but it is a great start. As of today 1/8/05 I have cleaned the filter 2 or 3 times because of the very dusty conditions I drive in. It didn't really need it, but I did it with the tune-up and before running through inspection. Thanks for your great product.

K&N:
I would like to say first and foremost that you offer some top notch products. I have been running your oil filter ever since I bought my 98 Jeep Wrangler 2 years ago. I recently purchased a conical style filter along with a tube adapter for the air intake system on my 4.0L I6 engine (242 ci). The first thing I noticed was the increased throttle response, especially at the first touch of the pedal. The overall power increase is amazing, and it feels like my engine can breath again compared to its old restrictive air box. I also noticed a massive increase when going up hills, not only does the Jeep maintain speed with my 33 inch tires howling down the road, but when I step on it...it does not hesitate! Thank you once again from a loyal consumer.
