    Hi there hot520i. Can I suggest that you fill out your profile so we can better help you. There is a really good post at the top of the page which is worth reading about new posters. Can I also suggest that you do a search on your chosen topic. There are some really good threads about the pros and cons of 'high performance' filters such as K&N from some ago.
    Cheers

    If you want a better roar with little bit better response, go with a K&N replacement. If you want a bigger roar, get a K&N cone with heat shield, but be prepared to lose some accel when heatsoaked. If you want an even better roar, get a tuned exhaust as well. If your goal is performance, save your pennies and get an EAT chip instead!

    another nice thing is an ITG replacement filter, stock type, flows better than cone at any price.
