Noticeable difference in acceleration and throttle response

This noticeably improves acceleration and throttle response. However, I can't say I noticed a huge difference in my MPG. I would also like to add that this is a very noisy filter system. You can hear it at idle, but when you step on the gas you can hear it. I would buy it again and still recommend it. This is a good buy. Not difficult to install. I got it done in about 20 minutes. If your car has an external temp gauge, you'll need a 3/4" drill bit, so don't forget that. That plus anโ€ฆ

Pros
  • SUPERIOR DURABILITY: The 10-year/million-mile limited warranty protects your vehicle for the lifetime.
Cons
  • Available in black only.

Seriously K&N? for filter

I have had many cars and have installed many intakes on different cars. This is the worst K&N filter I have ever owned. You have to drill through the sensor, I've read that in other comments before so I got that part. If you don't have the right tools, it can be a nuisance. The kit didn't have enough nuts to install the box, too many for a bolt you only need one for. The band clips are too small to fit. So buying a $300 kit and then spending another $10 on random crap is pretty ridiculous. Iโ€ฆ

Easy installation and real performance

The product works as advertised on my 2001 Durango 4x4 (no other modifications, stock exhaust). I notice a slight increase in horsepower and throttle response. I also noticed a 3-4 mpg increase. As others have said, it makes the motor a bit noisier. I wouldn't call it pretentious, but it's quite loud and noticeable in a truck with the windows open. Worth noting: When you're not stepping on the gas, it's not loud. If you REALLY step on the gas it wakes up and makes a nice, low, hard growl. I can

Pros
  • IMPROVED TOWING: Improves towing acceleration and climb performance with improved throttle response.
Cons
  • Brief Manual

A perfect match for the Ram Air Kit

Installed this CAI in a 2002 Dodge Dakota SLT Quad Cab. It comes with all the necessary parts and the filter is pre-lubricated with oil. Easy install would be 8 out of 10 just because I screwed up and broke 2 screws. After visiting a hardware store, I was able to install the whole thing in about 3 hours. Not bad considering the drive to and from the store. My rear dyno doesn't notice any significant increase in power, but around 2300 rpm the CAI sound really opens up to a pleasant toneโ€ฆ

problems. Read before you buy

Given the price and the checkered history of this company, let's just say I'm not impressed and wouldn't buy any other K&N product. First, make sure you're not just cleaning the intake manifold. But also a filter. Both of mine were covered in plastic and rubber leftovers from the manufacturing process. As others have said, this is NOT a cold air intake. No fresh cold air is supplied to the filter. The equipment supplied was wrong. I had a nut that didn't fit the bolt that came with it. Luckilyโ€ฆ

Pros
  • EASY MAINTENANCE: No filter cleaning required up to 100,000 miles
Cons
  • Weight
