Hi,

My K&N replacement is okay - nothing spectacular though. The engine notes have improved - initially the FE improved but now I am not so sure. I tried swapping with the OE temporarily and the OE gave better FE.

One thing to consider I guess is the heat factor. If it is very hot outside - Chennai can get very hot - then I am sure hot air intake will affect performance.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
-P.
