I realize there are many K&N huggers who fully believe in it's "value" but from my own personal experience it is all bs and marketing doublespeak hype..

Waste your money, I really don't care if you do.. But for me, never, ever, ever again on a K&N or any other non factory filter..

Kinda' harsh there with your hugger comment about others that have had a different experience than you.
And oh yeah.... I sure didn't waste my money on the K&N I mentioned above.

But it is good that you can answer the OP question..... with your experience with the product.

Not really "harsh".. I have had MANY arguments with K&N owners who really do believe the extra noise they hear is equal to more performance..

They tend to believe that they are getting better mileage..

They tend to believe that no "harm" can be done with a K&N..

They tend to believe that they are not wasting money on paper filters..

They tend to believe that K&N AND they themselves know much more about engines than the folks who actually designed and built the engines..

They tend to believe that if it is good enough for motocross cyclers who race with them that it MUST be good for every engine and application..

They tend to be in full disbelief when someone shows them that they swallowed the hook, line and sinker..

This K&N is "better" than a paper filter myth needs to be done by Mythbusters..

Don`t know about MythBusters, but my own personal use has been exceptional!

Like I said previously, most people that say they have issues, are internet experts. meaning everything they know is read on the internet. I guess that can be said for me also, except my results are the truth! I have nothing invested ion K&N so no need for me to back them!
