Just wondering if it's worth it to add the k&N air replacement filter from autozone. I added it in my previous car was wondering if i should in my tC??

View Full Version : Worth it to get a K&N Drop in filter? sonicscion 04-13-2005, 07:02 PM Do it.. I've got the TRD drop-in filter and it works just as good. Bought it from Sparks TRD.. Got a good price on it from them. Also, when you acclerate through 2nd, 3rd and occasionally 4th gear.. the intake whistles.. sounds awesome. dgHotLava 04-13-2005, 07:12 PM moved... dmikon 04-13-2005, 07:22 PM Well, if anything, it has a lifetime warranty. So you never have to replace your filter again. All you gotta do is clean it once in a while. shane_reid 04-13-2005, 07:27 PM To promote lazyness for users here-on - what is the part # for the K&N drop-in filter from autozone that will fit? dmikon 04-13-2005, 07:29 PM To promote lazyness for users here-on - what is the part # for the K&N drop-in filter from autozone that will fit? In case you don't get a reply, you can just ask in AutoZone. They can pull up the exact part # via the computer. yesti 04-13-2005, 07:32 PM Well, if anything, it has a lifetime warranty.

Your butt dyno wont even feel the difference, its all in your head. Save your money up and get a CAI. You'll get real results from that. toyota_scion_tc 04-13-2005, 10:27 PM drop in filters are not worth it. Your butt dyno wont even feel the difference, its all in your head.

Have you seen the stock air filter? cheap cheap. I have a Trd drop in and I also got it from trd sparks. It's definitely no CAI system but its definitely better than the stock and is yours for life w/cleaning. If you are going to get a CAI at some point, just wait. Note: drop-ins dont void the warranty. Diluvium 04-15-2005, 12:00 AM According to K&N the # is 33-2300 that or 33-2252 tckurt 04-15-2005, 01:24 AM neither do CAIs unless they cause a problem... this would be better than stock filter though if you add a s/c fac3 04-15-2005, 06:07 AM Save up and just get you a CAI, or atleast a short ram. qbnlykwhoa 05-20-2005, 12:38 PM With a drop in filter, does it make it louder at all? I opened up the air box the other day and i removed the air filter and i could definitly here it growl more. Just wondering if the stock filter is more restrictive. (No i didn't drive around without the filter, just rev'd a few times) ack154 05-20-2005, 12:47 PM Do it.. I've got the TRD drop-in filter and it works just as good. Eh, I don't know if "just as good" is enough to spend the extra $$ on something. I would prefer to hear "much better" or "kicks ___" or something similar. "Just as good" doesn't has as much umph to it. qbnlykwhoa 05-20-2005, 01:00 PM Iam just wondering if it gives it a little more growl. Does it sound any louder with just a drop in? Diluvium 05-21-2005, 08:10 AM no sound... not at all... i had one before my SWR intake, it just whistles more... gas mileage does improve slightly tho.. its not worth it if your lookin for performance... |
