hey all,

my air filter needs to be changed, and the question of best replacement comes to mind again...

3 options:
stock one,
k&n inlay,
custom cai

cheapest solution is no doubt to get another paper filter...
but it would be nice to gain a bit performance, right ?

so, k&n inlay filter is pretty easy to come by and easy to install
custom cai, is harder to make but should give better results ?

what is the best choice ?
my car is completely stock now, i might be changing the muffler one day (don't know if this is relevant ?)

also, i read a CAI makes you lose low RPM torque, why's that?

a custom Cai would be nice though.. :thumbup: but still gains aren't as much..

K&N....seeing as it last pretty much the life of the car if you take care of it
