If you want to refeut that, then introduce me to someone that used a K&N and a large debris got past the filter and caused major internal damage to the heads...If you cant, then i dont care what you have to say one the subject of Air Filters and risk of debris getting past them.
Hi,

As for the last one, look up what an ISO 5011 test is - irrefutable, repeatable, non-anecdotal, evidence. 'Course, I wouldn't expect you to accept that...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99

Like i said, I dont care if it may only give me 1-3hp and the pros about the filter that the manufactor claims are not there true...IM HAPPY WITH IT. I will never drive my boxster without a filter...A K&N is in no way worse than having nothing at all....thats basically what your saying.
