Re: 10v air filter upgrades?

The K&N filter gave me no significant power increase in my 90q. I think
that it is idling a little better now, but that could be all in my head.
If you want a change that you can hear, you will have to go with the
cone setup. Still, I do not know if there will be a noticeable power
increase.
