rssh 59 Report post Posted March 29, 2008 Why do you want K&N filter if you are opting for performance go for some more things like free flow only then you can note the difference .Anyway it won't hamper your engine. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sgiitk 0 Report post Posted March 31, 2008 I think there was a thread ages ago on which K&N was discussed. Gurkha had given a link to a URL which showed that K&N was the worst in terms of filtering dust! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aswin 0 Report post Posted March 31, 2008 K&N air filter does not hamper ur engine...but the increase in performance in negligable..if u want better performance u can buy a pete's tuning box for rs.35k....it won't affect engine adversily..power will increase up to 98bhp..pete's fitted CRDi can match honda city V>Tec and verna CRDi4 performance Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
