K&N or AirHog Panel Filters

[SJC5]

Hello All. Looking for opinions on whether to go with the K&N or AirHog. I currently have a modded 2004 Z06 airbox and just want to change the filter. I do not want to go CAI just yet and is happy with the improvement that I have with the modded airbox. I can really feel a difference. Any thoughts?


Thanks,

K&N!

My C4 had the K&N Open Lid & Filter and I have a Dual K&N Air Intake on my C5. I clean & treat them when necessary. They probably add a little performance increase.

I would be hesitant to use either of them. A recent SAE test published in the tool section of yesterdays tractors website reported that a K & N filter passed over 40 times as much dirt and plugged up twice as soon as the original equipment paper filter as used in a Duramax diesel pickup with very little increase in performance. Another option,if you are not interested in filtering out any dirt, is to simply take the air filter out and use nothing.

:L :L I'm really glad you said that and not me but I was thinking that too!!! I'm glad it's all fun and were forum buddies here.
I remember that I had a foam Amsoil filter back in the 80's on my 280ZX. That was supposed to be a good filter also. I guess Amsoil still has a replacement filter in their book.
