According to the K&N web site they say the filtration is supposed to be better...

YOU'RE a BRAVE GUY RUNNING WITH NO FILTER.... What if an insect gets in the engine down the air duct; except for instant crimation, lol, what else would there remains do?

Your point seems plausible however, independent lab tests indicate oiled cotton fibers actually clean the air better than a paper filter-and yes, while allowing air molecules to flow more freely.

Any of you wrench heads have an opinion on this?

 

Yeah. Don't listen to the Polack. He is, after all, a Polack. He's not the only K&N filter scaremonger. They have lots of bad things to say but nothing to back it up. If anyone has data showing K&N filters are bad, show it to us or STFU.

 

I used K&N before, Firstly was in my Grand Cherokee, didn't have single problem in that, but the stock air box prevents debris getting on there
being an SUV.

Then I put one in my Chryler Neon, which again had no problems, except when first installed seemed to do less milage on a tank full. But did get better in the long run....

Guys, the reason i have a concern is because the 90 degree V engine has 2 straight through air ducts that both ram air to the engine, with the air box off of the top of the motor the air scoop is about the size of a standard CD, and has wire mesh over...

Has anybody gone down this road on a V?

Really appreciate the responses....!!!!
