I worked at advanced auto for a bit and got a K&N filter for a discount. Didn't get it for performance but it works fine and they are reusable so saving money in the long term I think.
I've got a K&N filter in my '22 Sport 2.0T. No issues at the dealer, never even brought up.
Get one from K&N and wash it every 6 months, lasts for many years
I have and like the K&N filter that drops in the factory housing, i like that you can just clean it and put it back in. You won’t notice any difference power or fuel milage wise.
I had a 2014 Ford fusion with a 2.5l engine and put one in and I could definitely notice a difference. Plus it is a lifetime filter so you'd never have to replace it again. Only clean and refill with oil.
You could look at a K&N drop in filter. They flow better and can give a little performance boost.
My intake parts showed up yesterday and today. Here they are installed: Under normal driving conditions you’d never notice it’s there. Not until you go WOT and get up above 3-3500rpm does the lovely VR gurgle kick in. Can’t tell a difference in power from the butt dyno but I also wasn’t going WOT on stock intake right before I swapped it. I may get skippy and run some data logs and see what the MAF is reading. I will also report back after some normal driving what the fuel consumption change is, if any.
I recently replaced my filter with a K&N. I was hoping for a little more felt power and better fuel economy. I've had my 2010 Prius IV for 4 years and have put over 60k miles on it so I'm pretty "in tune" with it. I haven't noticed any difference in either area.
Second, these things suck! Buy a Non-Oiled cold air intake instead. If this is a Planted ad, K&N even has one, I have it on my TRDOR. Third, I am a dealer parts guy as my career... And, yes, I Know better. And yet I STILL over oiled my K&N filter and killed an expensive Mass Air Flow sensor on my truck. So I will Never use an oiled filter again. Old technology, imho.
All the MAF stuff aside, I've never been a fan. I've seen people with diesel trucks running that have collapsed and sucked into the intake tube. Granted our trucks don't have turbos, but that alone makes me question their quality. Plus I fear a more "open" filter would allow more particles. I'll keep my stock pleated filter.
