Results of a Drop-In K&N air filter???

Just wondering if anyone had any results to post on either HP/Torque or MPG gains their getting after replacing their stock air filter w/ a K&N drop-in filter.

K&N SUCKS

 

Anyone run anything different? I know friends that use S&B in there domestic pickups.

 

Dirty MAF sensor.

 

Everyone here seems to like the afe pro dry s. Uses no oil and cleans easily.

 

and probably lets the same amount of silica into your cylinders as a K&N.

Ill stick with OE paper filters made by Wix.

 

leads to frickin sludge on your filter made up of dirt, bugs, sticks, and oil. Paper unless you're running your truck just on the track haha

edit: no horsepower gains other than a rough idle from a dirty MAF sensor.

 

i use OEM. switched back from K&N because of what is said above.. I wish i would have done research before i got it. The other day i was at the dealership picking up parts and i didn't realize they stock K&N products at the dealership.. I highly recommend against it. didn't have any problems with the truck till i installed it. IMO go with OEM it was designed for the truck.

 

Toasted turbos

 

Silica from what. Haven't heard of any complaints from the afe filters.

 

Don't do it. Stick to everything OEM Toyota for your engine because these engines generally don't respond well to aftermarket parts and in many cases the down sides are wore than the "gains". Mine is 30k shy of 500k and all OEM parts.

 

Just sit back and wait for it.... takes a while for people to admit the failures.

If your looking for quick data compare your MAF before and after.

There is no way to increase airflow and filtration with a drop in filter besides adding surface volume and our OE paper filters already have twice the surface volume as a K&N or AFE. So with that said increased flow without increased surface area means additional shit in your engine.

 

Still waiting.

 

for what?

 

lol you'll see. besides is it really worth the risk for the extra .0001 mpg that it might give you

 

what?

 

you said in ur previous post just sit back and wait. I'm assuming you meant for the silica.

 

ah...ok.

Yea, my engine is already shot so I have no need to wait.

I actually need to stop waiting and install the new one Ive had for almost a year.
