Will depend on your area but yes. My experience is they don't work well dealing with fine particles off road. Desert silt and volcanic ash. You really are not going to see that so much in day to day on road driving.

I prefer a dry pleated filter over a K&N. They work as well and the main benefit you get easier maintenance. Just clean them and dry them and you are done, no oiling. I have the HKS in my car.

This article is a bit dated but is still informative (at least to me).

Track prep day. Brake fluid, oil change, alignment, tire rotation, general checkout. Since the Evora is sucking up the rack had to do it in the driveway on jacks. Glad it was a nice day out.

Unhappy

I hit a large metal trailer hitch that was in the middle of the road, and couldn’t safely swerve avoid it in time. unfortunately had to have it towed to the subaru dealership. Extensive subframe damage and extensive transmission damage just from eye balling it; no idea how extensive the damage really is until the shop can get a good look. anyone have a rough estimate as to how expensive/time consuming the parts/labor will be? thinking i may have totaled it

Took off the duck bill and test fitted the new cf gt wing, drilled the holes and mounted it, as well as the new rear bash bar. Installed some new uel headers last week. Almost time for it to leave the garage!
