K&N Air Charger

[CGray]

First post!



Anyways, when I bought my truck the guy had a new K&N Air Charger that he was going to install but never got around to it. I've read online about the K&N uses Oil and these are bad, but some people think they are ok. Any thoughts on the K&N Air Charger as most people talk about the drop in filters.

I run AFE dry on the Cummins, but I do have K&N's on all my quads and I do not oil them, dry with outerwear only.

Is this what you are talking about?



Edit: I posted a link but its not the correct thing. Not sure where to find a outerwear for the filter. Any links or ideas?

Looks like this may be it. How long do these last?

yep thats what you want. they are basically really really tightly woven plastic. they last for a good while, when they get dirty you just pull it off and wash it. and welcome to tdr

Before you install the K&N charger, review the article in TDR #59 about the real world performance of these systems. To cut to the chase, it appears these only produce more power on a dyno, not in the real world. I have a FiPack on a '98 Grand Cherokee, not sure I would do it again.
