Are the replaement K&N air filters worth the price ?

 

the ones you drop into your stock air box? no.

the ones you bolt on to your MAF with an adapter, yes.

 

Why would you say that a K&N filter that is reusable is not worth swapping out the stock paper filter that you have to change out?

I belive it is worth it as it allows more air flow in and you can reuse it rather than tossing it and then buying a new one.

Just my 2 cents.

 

hmmm didnt think of it that way....i thought he was talkin about performance wise

 

Well I suppose the drop in is worth it in the sense that it's better than stock. Last time I looked at one, the drop in was like $35 or $40, correct me if I am wrong. I got a complete hybrid intake for less than $60. Inexpensive cone, adapter, homemade upper piping. In my opinion, which is just that, my opinion. It makes a lot more sense to spend an extra $15 or so for a hybrid intake.
So is the drop in worth the price? Not to me, When a hybrid, or even just the cone filter alone is like 5 times the value.

 

Hmmm I never thought of it that way also....
