I'll look around a bit and let you know what I find.

Looks good though.

Ehh, that's why folks vote, they don't have to tell.



How'd you get it for that cheap?

Well you will find this interesting. Martel Brothers seems to have two websites but use the same paypal information for both. I couldn't remember the site so I looked at paypal as assumed that the webpage was right. Anway here is the link to the correct page. It is actually n2performance.com

Thanks for letting us know about the new K&N filter. I'm probably going to order one next week.

Not bad, but I don't see our engines needing more air that regular K&N filter can't provide smile.gif

I got cylinder-shaped K&N off ebay for $37 shipped.

Interesting design, but I don't think that top opening will add you any noticeble pony. But it's just my $0.02

Maybe not when new and clean.. but once it starts to get dirty, it is going to outflow EVERYTHING due to the larger amount of filtering area availible.

So you said dry... it is shipped dry and you oil it? Or you are NEVER supposed to oil it?

I think the extra surface area will help out a bit too. I'll probably order mine from Jegs, shipping is fast and it's free.

Its shipped dry (from what I've read). The recharge kit (have one sitting here) does oil the filter. But beyond the oiling during a recharge I havent seen anything about needing to oil it. You have any other info Mad?

Wish I did.. I happen to like that filter a lot. I may have to get one myself. However, I am leaning towards oiling before installing.
