The car will breathe a little better than the stock paper filterPlus the K&N is cleanable so lasts a lot longer.Loads of guys on here use them myself included.BTW pics of car required Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/89224-is-k-and-n-air-filter-worthwhile/#findComment-1500628 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Major pain in the ass in my opinionAlso depends where you operate your car, stock air filter can last years around the city 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/89224-is-k-and-n-air-filter-worthwhile/#findComment-1500983 Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the price you pay there are better options, like the Herrod or KPM airbox. But if you want a noticeable power gain, save for a tune. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/89224-is-k-and-n-air-filter-worthwhile/#findComment-1507800 Share on other sites More sharing options...
