All I can say is wow!!

The car breathes better, top end power increase is very noticeable and acceleration is way better.

Would definitely recommend it.

Nice!!

Drop some Torco Race fuel in there
(Which picks up your octane levels to approx 98ron - Ie the fuel that these cars are currently designed/programmed for?) and it feels amazing!

DIF + Brz exhaust with either:
1) Octane booster(Short term), or
2) 95ron tune / software (Long term)

Makes the car feel like a decent sports car

Try your local motorcycle shop.
You need a solvent for cleaning, and filter oil.
Both are normally aerosols and quite cheap.

I bought a cleaning kit from Masterparts a few years ago

So what does the filter cost?

BRY100 · 04-01-2015, 04:57 AM

I got mine a few months ago from ATS for R950.

Masterparts still sell the K&N cleaning kits.

Decided to clean my K&N Drop In Filter today,

Purchased the cleaning kit from ATS a while ago, but never got a chance to use it, Cost around R200

Was a simple process (Used Youtube for guidance),

After approx 1 year of usage, there was bugs, leaves, stems and other junk hidden in that filter,

Ended up washing it 3 times, and re-oiling it was easy,

I am def not going to wait for a year next time, and will probably clean and re-oil it in the next 6 months,

Here are some pics:
