Does anyone have any info or opinions on the K&N DROP IN on the GT500, I thought I read 4-6 RWHP?? Any thoughts?

K&N has been known to exaggerate their claims....

I do notice a slight more sucking of air than before, so it must do something?

No doubt oiled filters flow better than paper, but I'd be real skeptical of anything K&N claims. This is the same K&N that told me I wouldn't need a tune with their CAI on the GT500....yea if I like windows in my block!

What happened when you installed it? Did you get a CEL code???

I never got the K&N. At the time I was new to GT500's and was just looking around for a CAI. In my search I came across the K&N. I was going to buy it but I heard from several forum members that you can't run a CAI on these SC motors without a tune or bad things will happen (over-lean). For the hell ofit Icalled K&N and they swore that you didn't need a tune to run their CAI. I reminded them that this is a SC motor, but they suck with their position.Sorry, I don't buy it.

K&N is a noob company, REAL GT500 intake packages boost the car to 600hp, repeatedly proven. When you hear gains of 4hp when compared to this, it's just a joke really. Price is not that much more either considering.

Justin at VMP Tuning said that he dyno'ed the K&N Drop in filter and lost power over the factory filter. He recommends the factory filter over the K&N. He said the factory filter was actually a pretty good filter.

How much power was lost??
