    One word of advise on the K&N. Don't over oil the filter. The oil pass through can contaminate the MAF with oil. This tends to mess up the MAF input to the PCM.

    We used to run K&N filters on the race engines until my engine builder showed me the dyno numbers. I got more HP out of a 4" paper WIX filter. The inside of the engines didn't show anymore wear when the engines were tore down for rebuild. 700+HP Dirt Late Model engines aint cheap so trust me when I say that there is no real performance gain running a K&N but on a street car, they have a certain cosmetic appeal over a standard air box.

    Sweet ride ya have there. Interior is awesome.

    Thanks man. I think the filter is pre-oiled and K and N tests these filters with multiple MAF for optimal performance.
