filter question
 

Have a question
has anyone tried a Fram Hog Filter or a KNN air filter and if so, has it helped your performance on the 05 4.0?
Am new to this, have a 94 and now an 05.
Who says you only need one? LOL:D

I put a K&N in my 05 4.0 V6 and....
Can't say I notice much of a difference. Maybe a little bit more spunky but It ain't much at all.
I don't have any other mods yet either.

RE: filter question
 

I put a K&N replacement filter on mine today. If it made any difference, it was minimal.

RE: filter question
 

I put a K&N drop-in and a GT muffler on mine. These types of mod's offer tiny incremental changes and you shouldn't expect to notice a difference. It does sound a lot better, but I can't tell by feel if there's a performance improvement. Really to feel a difference you have to do something radical like supercharger/ turbo or nitrous.

I did notice a slight gain in MPG with the K&N (about 1-1/2 MPG improvement).

Thanks for the info.
Just looking for something that will help out a little bit in mpg and takeoff. Seems like a lot of hype on K&N and was wondering if it was worth it.
Would love to do something radical, but dealer told me to behave till warranty up....whatever that would mean :D

RE: filter question
 

I'm in the same boat.
I'm not doing anything radical until the warranty is up.

For now I'm going w/ the K&N filter and a Magnaflow exaust.

oil change was totally simple...took me all of 20 minutes to drain and put in 5 quarts of 5w30 and a new oil filter...dealer wanted to keep my car for a day to do it..i said no way to that obviously

RE: filter question
 

I run the MMR intake kit and i do notice a difference in performance and sound and increases MPG although not much. 1 or 2
