Have had KN now for about a month and the sound is throatier and yes the idle is better, the dip is gone. Happy!

Dyno your car without any filter in the airbox and then you know what is the maximum gain possible ( max flow possible through OEM air box). Then I'm sure you will see that for such a smal gain you can buy any one from good brand, dry if possible.

There is the thread. That poster said he had his car dyno'd and thats what the results were. If it were the vendor doing the Dyno I would be suspicious but I would take another members word for it.

Hey I am really new. Is changing the filter difficult? And would it risk damaging the system at all if I did change one?

There is a article in the DIY section of the forum:
