K&N Fuel and Oil filter
 

hey all, im thinking of getting a K&N Fuel and Oil filter for my 98 civic
hatch, do u think they are good? how much would they cost approx in
australian dollars, and what do u think?

thanks heaps

Sandro

Re: K&N Fuel and Oil filter
 

i dont know if they would be better than stock, i would stick with buying
things like oil fitlers, fuel filters from the dealer, they usually cost
about the same (a good brand vs. a dealer product)

Re: K&N Fuel and Oil filter
 

id have to side with K&N. their air/fuel filters have always worked wonders
on my CRX and daewoo, not to mention the increased power you usually get
from their products. if youre going for performance, make sure you get a
larger fuel filter, as youll need to dump more fuel if youre going for
performance. just my 0.02$

Re: K&N Fuel and Oil filter
 

I swear by K&N air filters. They are in everything I own (98 Corolla,
01 Prelude, 88 Delta 88,) plus every family members car I can get them in
(01 Saturn SL1, 02 Kia Sedona, 97 Tercel.) I find that depending on
application, they can improve throttle response (Kia, Olds) , top end power
(Prelude, Corolla), and fuel economy (Tercel, Saturn), or a combination of
all three. The K&N oil filters I don't find to be as good of a deal. You
won't see any performance / fuel economy increase with an oil filter. I
usually use WIX or UAP (made by WIX) oil filters as I find them to be a good
quality filter at about half the cost of the dealer, and about one quarter
the cost of a K&N. Personally, I believe in using a higher quality oil. I
change the oil and filters in the cars every 5000kms/3 months and because of
the extreme cold here in Canada (it's -20C or 4F today) I use 100% synthetic
oil (Mobil 1) in the Prelude, Corolla and Tercel and a synthetic blend in
the rest. As far as prices go, that obviously varies with application and
store but I found most of my filters in the $40.00 - $60.00 range. With the
Canadian dollar trading almost 1 to 1 with the Australian dollar, I'd expect
prices to be comparable.

Hope this helps,

Rob

Re: K&N Fuel and Oil filter
 

a lager fuel filter wont do a bit off good for more fuel. a fuel
pressure regulator that is adjustible would help. if you open up the
air intake you need to open up the exhaust too! loud does not mean
powerful, some restriction in exhaust flow might do more good than a
neighbor waker mufler. if you cant tell your ecu to change its ways all
these tricks wont do more than tickle the seat of youre pants anyway. a
stand alone ecu is the only way to go.

Re: K&N Fuel and Oil filter
 

The only problem with K and N filters is that they in fact do allow more
particulates through the filter into your engine than a standard paper
filter. Hence the more airflow to the engine. For me it isn't worth
sacrificing the longevity of the motor for a couple extra horsepower.
