Hi guys,
I priced a K&N Filter tonight for the SS
and the shop wanted $93.00 (Canadian)
I am curious what you guys paid for yours?
I also have a question;
I have heard that people who have installed
the K&N haven't felt any difference, so why does everybody have one?
I installed one in my truck to hopefully
improve the mileage but saw absolutely no
improvement.
Sorry for the negative nature of this post!
Thanks
Dave

well I got it just for the hell of it but It will pay itself off because you will never have to get another air filter and its gotta do more good than bad so I'd say to get it. I got mine with my whisper lid and that was about 189$ american

1) It's a better filter system. Clean and replace instead of throw out.

2) Combined with a Whisper Lid it's a much cleaner look under the hood.
