You know I bought the K&N.. its great!
I plan to get a foam "prefilter" for it.. That should totally kick ass!
What I like about the K&N is that its construction is such that there arent any gaps or crecives left out where stuff can enter.
What I DONT like is that its kinda big and if you do not set it in tight, it CAN FALL OFF! when you running gets rough!

You can get it for about 20 bucks. And the prefilter.. a foam cover you can put on top should be a coupla bucks. I would use that for extremely dusty conditions.

I believe most of the air filters do a great job but I have a think for the chrome

I'm gonna mount the K&N and put a second pre filter on it just to make sure lol
If only I can keep myself from forgetting to use the damn air filter oil I'll be in good shape!

Hey delcampo, where did you get the cold air kit? That looks really cool. I thought about making something like that out of some tubing.
