I have had the berk intake for 35K. Last weekend i recharged the K&N. I have gained 25 miles to the tank. I read the instructions and it suggests to clean the filter more if a lot of highway driving is done, which i do. I oiled it carefully,,took my time. Folks here suggested the oil may screw the MAF. I did not have any problems....

 

no...i folks here (AND K&N themselves) say the oil will ONLY screw the MAF if overused.

it's not just the oil itself - in fact, K&Ns require oil to function properly. you just can't use TOO MUCH or it WILL screw your MAF.

the recharge kit explains proper oil amounts in it's instructions.

 

how do u like the berk intake??? i just ordered one. noticable gains?? sound??

thanx

 

no gains at low RPM. perhaps 1 or 2 HP gain under WOOT. sounds very nice...

 

ok but no loss at low rpm either???

 

without midpipe you wont get much gains

midpipe gains low and high end power

 

yeah i got it w/mid pipe, and apexi filter
