i'm thinkin about getting one but i don't know wat to expect :confused:
who's done it and wat did you think???

every first gen owner that ive talked to about this recons it is. they say the fuel economy is better and it revs alittle more freely. and considering u pay 50-60 bucks for the paper one and have to change it a few times each year there 150 just there. also u can clean and reuse the k&n 3- 5 times (only an esitimate) it pays for it self in a year.

Yes! :)

i didn’t get a K&N filter but i got some other brand from super cheap and apparently it was the performance 1 and it improved fuel economy and had more open surface area for air to come which costed aprox $35 and improved fuel econ allot plus did a carby clean/injector clean

even if its just for the fuel i'll give it a shot

yes worth it and you will save fuel if you dont boot it alot

Hey wats the code for it?? Cause ive been into Autobarn and Supercheap and they didnt have a K&N for the 1st Gen. Im assuming its for another Mitsu car, but can fit the 1st Gen.

K&N part# NNE-2875, paid $120 for mine from bursons shop about

yup totally recommend
your kidding your selfs if you say theres a power increase tho, it will rev alot more freely but thats about it
i also took out that ****ty paper slincer behind sensor, took off the snorkle and bored the tb and this with K&N makes a HUUGE deep induction noise its louder then the exhaust, SA people know how kickass it sounds :D

nar you can clean/reuse the K&N alot more times then that, these if looked after and well cleaned will out live the car twice over if not more

i did same as mad lante cept boring out tb and mine sounds liek a vacuum cleaner :bowrofl:
but yer induction noise is there (i have a unifilter) but im guessing manual would sound a lot better!!

Go the K&N,
Before I did CAI, I cut off the inlet resonator off the bottom of the standard snorkel and plugged it up.
This also gives it a nice note to the induction.
Also I heated the end up and gave it a nice smooth bell mouth for better flow.

i also took out that ****ty paper slincer behind sensor hmm tell me more or show me :)

take off airfilter holder and look through back (part that connects to intake hose to throttle body) and u will see some circular object with what looks liek zig zagging cardboard.
take out airfilter and then unscrew maf inside, then you can remove it.

haha i just hacked at that with a screw driver :badgrin:

In the manual it says it is supposed to make the intake quieter apparently :nuts:

I just removed my zigzag silencer with a pair of side cutters, sounds nice and loud :D

hmm tell me more or show me :)
god knows why ive still kept it

also teles right, i dont know why yous are cutting it up for.. cos you just pull it out :doubt:

and for the record, it does actually soften the induction noise, hence why it had to go :bowrofl:

cut that paper thing out

sounds nice
