seriously i think a drop in k&N filter is a waste of money, someone gave me mine,and it didn't notice any performace gain. There was an article on testing drop-in filters, and there wasn't any performace gain with a K&N, and none, even if no filter was present on the dyno. If you really want to get more air to the engine then get a cold-air intake.

Um, i don't know where you got that article from. But drop-in compared to short ram intakes. There is always an ok hp gain (listen, you're paying 65 bucks, what do ya expect) in both, but no difference between the two. CAI is different, everyone notices that. But you can't say it's a waste of money and not back it up. Sorry, bad mood, have a supendous day.
