Re: What do I gain ?
I had just the K&N air filter and a modified housing on an F150. That and an upgraded exhaust gave me a bit of seat of the pants power, but hardly noticeable. Definitely louder, which was annoying on that crappy 4.2L V6.
The bad part was that no matter how hard I tried to seal the air filter, dust was passing through. Each item I inspected it, I found fine dust in the pleats of the intake AFTER the filter. I went back to the paper filter and new stock air filter housing after that and found no lack in performance and no more dust.
