Drop in air filter

Does a K&N drop in actually do anything?
Does it make the car sound like it has an intake?

Where the hell do you find the K&N drop in?!

I went to TWO autoparts stores today and NEITHER could even find a LISTING of the part.

I checked autocarparts.com - none listed.

I have the drop-in. The engine seems to rev. more freely and it's a little louder at WOT.
I don't really care about gas mileage but I've heard it improves also.

Go to www.ahmotor.com. I received mine in about 4 days. The site also lists quite a few other performance products. Good luck!

Go to the K&N web site, they'll re-direct you to where you can get it on-line.

The part number for the CL-S K&N drop in filter is 33-2178. I have one. Haven't put it in yet. Very soon though. I ordered mine from a local shop listen on K&N's site. I paid right around $45 for it.
