    Just wanted to share a great experience ordering a new set of K&N perfromance air filters for my 456GT. Ordered it on their website Tuesday morning and it was delivered Wednesday afternoon !!! They were about half the price of comparable BMC filters and of course much less than the OEM paprer filters. An easy simple and relatively inexpensive worthwhile upgrade in my opinion.

    I agree- while the effects of (wet) oil/cloth filters have had some controversy on MAF sensors- the entertainement value of the additional intake sound is worth it! I use K&N in all my cars and since they ship dry from the factory ready for installation- I just replace them when needed and treat them like an OEM filter.

    Simple mod that's worth it!

    I do not agree. I am not a fan of the sound (very personal of course) and also do not trust their filtration capability, no matter what the manufacturer says. The oem (or oem-style) paper filters are cheap from the usual sources.

    As they say- to each their own... I love the throatier sound but it does change the luxury quietness if that's what's enjoyed. I don't use them for their cost efficiency since I don't reuse them (although if you clean/reuse they say they're good for a million miles...) but again it's a choice.
