k&n drop in filter

Ive been a member for 10 minutes and already made two posts!!! What is the opinion of the board members on if a k&n drop in filter does any good for the cl-s? I understand that it already comes with a high flow fiter from the factory. What do you guys think? Thanks,Jon

I dont know what others think, but I feel a little more power, just a little when starting from rest. And for the price you can'nt go worng, let me know if you want one, as i had posted before, i can ship you one for $35.

YES, BETTER MPG AND NICER INDUCTION SOUND TOO.FASTER, WHO KNOWS. IT'S WORTH THE INVESTMENT AS YOU CAN CLEAN IT AND NEVER HAVE TO REPLACE IT.

its the Air filter, that is filtering the air going to the engine, This same Filter (the whole filter system) is subsituted by the CAI (cold air induction).
The drop in K&N filter just replaces the stock filter becasue the K&N lets more air flow in to the engine it is less restrictive.

thats as far as i know.

To get better performance and mileage, I suggest you to go with AEM CAI as I did.
