You can park inside the building and tell the guard that you are buying things from Speedworks, if not you can also park outside where there are coupon parkings....thumbsup.gif

Uncle Foo, sponge type does not "straighten" flow as well as cotton (K&N), but definitely flows better than OEM paper filter.

 

For such aftermarket filters, just remember to use paper towels or newspaper to soak up the excess oil at least overnight after re-oiling (I leave paper towel soaking for 24hrs on my K&N). So keep the apaper filter for use when you're cleaning the aftermarket filter [;)]

In actual fact, the swirling of air is necessary in the combustion chamber. But cyclone's claim of swirling the air before the intake valves is kinda reversing physics [:p]

Yes, it's ok to use K&N for STIPULATED period as recommanded by K&N. Any prolongation is at your own risk. Yes, it should affect your MAF sensor. As more air is coming into the intake, your ecu will alter accordingly to the increased MAF sensor output and the same amount of fuel will have a more complete combustion and thus a cleaner engine on the long run.
