Air filters

[Elysium]

In two threads that are currently running, K & N filters have been recommended to improve performance of peoples 4wds. I have stated in one thread that it is my belief the performance benefits you gain are NOT worth spending the bucks to buy a K & N filter.

I have always used the old style filters and I am more than happy with what they do. Maybe after you read the following, some others may change their minds about K & N.

disclaimer : I am not saying that they are a Sh!t filter, just that they are not designed for 4wd's in mind...they were soley designed for high performance cars with high performance engines.

anyways...read this and make up your own minds

thats the main reason I put it up there...but didnt want to point it out at the time...was letting people make their own minds up.

I had one in an old 92 petrol patrol and changed back to standard filter and it made no difference to the overall running of the 4x4
VERDICT K&N not much chop for your everyday 4x4
