Features
A high-flow, washable filter that delivers the maximum amount of air possible into your engine while providing superior filtering Multiple layers of cotton fabric sandwiched between pleated aluminum screen capture airborne dirt particles Improves horsepower and torque Emission legal in all 50 states, will not void manufacturer's warranty Filters can be cleaned over and over, and are backed by a million mile limited warranty
These reusable K&N Filtercharger air filters outflow any other filter--up to 900 cfm--for power gains of up to 15 HP. They use a surgical cotton fabric soaked in oil as their tack barrier. Sandwiched between an aluminum screen wire, the holes in the cotton catch tumbling air and straighten it out. Since air moving in a straight line flows faster, the filter actually improves airflow. They can be covered by up to 1/4 in. of debris before air restriction makes cleaning necessary. The filters come pre-oiled, and many are available as a direct fit for your application.
Spotlight customer reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: Less waste, better performance Comment: Perfect fit and easy-enough install in my 2002 VW Golf GLS 2.0. I like knowing that I won't have to buy and throw away paper filters for the rest of the life of my car, and I do notice a bit more punch when driving. Haven't had to deal with the cleaning and re-oiling yet, but it sounds simple enough. Customer Rating: Summary: Good replacment air filter for 2.3 V5 Jetta/Bore Comment: If you're looking for a replacment air filter, then this is the best choice. If look for performane then this is not for you. I can feel very small gain at the very top end on my 1999 2.3 VR5 Jetta/Bore. Customer Rating: Summary: Added Performance/Gas Mileage! Lasts forever! Comment: Let's face it, the VR6 rarely gets the rated 31mpg HWY on the sticker. It's a high compression, small V8-like performing engine in a car that weighs as much as some small American trucks/SUVs (German!). I've always used 93 octane Chevron/Shell in mine as recommended by VW in the VR6, I change my fuel filter every 20k miles even though VW says it never needs replacing, I've always had it serviced at the dealership, had the fuel system service at 50k miles and even add sea foam to the oil right before an oil change and use techron concentrate in the gas every 5k miles. With all of this meticulous care the most I've gotten on long trips averaging as low as 70mph is about 28mpg! After adding this filter I noticed a small, not huge but noticeable performance boost. With hard acceleration you can hear an almost turbo like suction sound coming from the engine! Also on my last trip to Austin averaging about 85-100mph I got 30.22222 mpg! Great filter! Will pay for itself after a good while because of the fact that it's cleanable. Would highly recommend!
