K & N - First test Drive


Recommended Posts

K & N Delivered today.

Although I am the furthest thing from a mechanic I checked out the " How to " video on the K & N page and figured even I could do it.

 

Actually very easy with no problems to install.

 

Just back from first drive and I could not be happier .

Definitely a little increase in HP that is noticeable when I stomp it at lower speeds.

Passing seemed to see a small increase in power too.

 

While the noticeable increase is nice, I cant lie I love the new sound coming from the engine :)

A pleasing " deep growl " made me smile every time I put the pedal to the floor .

Not overly noticeable at regular acceleration so best of both worlds.

 

Kinda worried that any increase in MPG that is suppose to be achieved will be offset with a Heavy foot.

 

Hmmmmmm......what mod do I do next ?? lol

 

Cheers !

Looks sweet! Has any one made one of these for the Edge out of off the shelf parts? I made one for my Pontiac, for around 50 bucks. Worked great, noticeable difference, no idiot light, passes smog.

I always had aspirations of finishing it off with the front pipe, but never got to it...
