Best Air Filter

[tbauer03]

Is K&N still king or are other company's doing better. GreenFilters Accel Fram etc etc????????
Just Curious to here peoples opinions or some actual facts.
Also curious if a tapered cone or a staight cylinder filter is best for our trucks.
Thinking tapered cone would provide more strength to reduce likelyhood of collapsing but the straight cone offers more area.

Re: Best Air Filter

I've got a K&N, but I did read a study somewhere on line where they compared multiple air filters expensive, to the cheapist piece of crap, to no filter at all and there was almost no difference in HP with any of them. I don't know how much wieght this statement holds, but I thought I would through it out there.

Re: Best Air Filter

i run the cheapest cone i can find, K&N= junk in my book, they dont filter very well just flow air well, ifi wanted good air flow and no filtering id run no filter.

Re: Best Air Filter

All of the open air 'cone' type filters flow within a few CFM of each other these days. I would get the one that filters air best. You will notice dirt in your crankcase and bearings more than you will notice a 2 or 3hp gain from one filter to another
