K&N high flow lifetime filter. Higher airflow (you'll hear turbo spool and gain a few HP), and you never need to change it - you can wash it after 50-70,000 mi, or whenever you feel it's dirty enough to clean, but you've never got to buy another filter again...
I would NOT do the K&N engine filter. Little to no real world gain vs the investment. What I would recommend is the k&n cabin filter. I replaced the factory one with a k&n and makes a noticeable difference.
I use the K&N 170 on my 1999 883C, have for years. Not sure why Amazon is saying "not for your model", I've literally been using it for the last 16 years and 70,000 miles, and have ordered 6 of them from Amazon over that time period.
I saw a post online where the K&N cabin air filter gives you 30% more airflow.
I have been using k&n for over 30 years, engine and cab air. I currently have a 4dr civic with 225,000 miles and a silverado v6 with 315,000 miles, both bought new. Both have had k&n filters since the first week of ownership. All have been cleaned and reoiled at least once a year, cabin usually twice. They all look great, and engines do not consume any more oil than when they were new. The savings in waste and money are ridiculous if you buy things and keep them. If you prefer to change vehicles frequently, probably not for you...
Been running this on my 03’ hatch and it’s been great.
I use to run K&N on a few cars, until I realized how dirty the intake tract was post filter. I still run one on my supercharged car because it fits well and lets be honest looks good, but on my daily and SUV I want to last a long time I stick with paper.
I have the k&n filter and I don’t notice a difference, the only upside would be you can clean it and reuse it but other than that there’s not much of a difference than a paper filter
I used a K&N on my ALH, turbo was trashed in 15000 miles due to dirt getting through it.
These k&n air filters are trash. They basically dont filter at all. Thats how they achieve increased air flow.
