[s-cars] Re: K&N filters bad?

[Steve Marinello]

There "seemed" to be a slight improvement in throttle response on the '83
urq and my mileage also went up very slightly for the next few tankfuls
while I was keeping track...mostly highway.  I've got one on the RS2'ed
'95.5 S6 avant and really couldn't say, since it was on it when I got it.
The '95 stock engined S6 sedan has the stock filter, sounds a little
different and, of course, gets MUCH better mileage, but I don't think I'd
assign that to the filter!
