What do you guys think about the new K&N X-Stream. I ordered one since mine got smashed (long story). Was $55 shipped for a 2.75" inlet, 6" base, 5" top, and 6.5" long. Here is a pic and dont forget to vote smile.gif

I just figured hey we have a filter behind the front fog light area with a solid top on the filter. Seemed like it would make sense to have one with the top open so that the air could stream into it. Dont know worth a try since it doesnt cost much more than their other filters. I have never had a problem with any of K&N's products. Usually very good quality.

Wow, pretty damned nice. They have any #'s on the increased flow?

Got a model # for us or where to get it?

Oiled or dry?

The model number I got (with the above specs) was RX-4870. The cheapest place I could find them (including shipping) was from Martel Brothers Racing Clicky Here. It was $56.96 shipped and it is dry not oiled.
