Hi...Any Indica Turbo owners with a K&N. My first service is due, and am planning to put one. Would like to hear from you guys and make an informed choice!!!

moodswings · 11th September 2006, 16:12

Hi,

Does anyone know of any installers of K&N or other filters in New delhi or Gurgaon. I have not been able to find one. Please suggest. This request is for a Mahindra Scorpio.

It's not the topspeed that changes with K&N! but surely the way that topspeed is achieved. If it was a struggle before, now it should be smooth holly molly!!!

And regarding the maintenance of the filters, Better get it cleaned every 10k. 15k is a must cleaning time. And it can be done DIY if you have all the necessities including passion!

Well well, now after using the K&N Stock filter for almost over an year, now i am considering to go for a Conical Filter for my TUCSON CRDi.

Now my query is, which is the best K&N Conical filter i can use? as i see there are a couple of diff. models. I saw a model for around Rs.8,000/- wud that be good?

I am using stock replacement filter for SWIFT. It really made a good difference in terms of performance and marginally on FE.

Hey Guys,
I am new here.Infact its my first Post.
My query is,
Is it worth fitting a K&N on a Skoda Octavia 1.9 TDi ? IF yes,which one is recommended ?

Ironmarine · 19th September 2006, 15:03

Not very sure about this guys but I would recomend contacting methods online, who should be able to give you the right model of filter for your car make.

I wanted to know if any one has got chargers for the K&N, which I heard is very handy in themansoon and also wanted to know how much does it cost with the entire kit to clean the filter.

pramodallamraju · 19th September 2006, 21:25

Hi,

I see you are in Hyderabad, can you tell me where I can get a KN filter in this city? I am looking for the filter for my zen-mpfi petrol model.

Thanks

My 800 (carb) is fitted with K$N regular it reaches 120 in 3rd and 130 in 4th.with ord filter this is 105 & 120.On normal drive it gives additonal 3kmpl on 165/65/12 tyres

karthik247 · 19th September 2006, 21:45

Have been using the filter maybe for around 2months now. Its worth the money, thats for sure. But its not AS good as it was initially (not that its bad, its still very good) but that could be due to clogging as a result of a lot of dirty air, dust etc. in the city

Here are the figures, tested y'day.
1st - ??
2nd - 105kmph
3rd - 140kmph
4th - Couldn't test it
