Air filter replacement <BG>
 
Replaced the air filter on our Grape :eek: ...

LOL you guys. Ive done it a few times for other ppl and have swapped the stocker for a few CGS units. Once ya do it, it takes all of 15 minutes.

Yeah I agree, it's not a hard or long process. Not quite like a wingnut though. :lol:

Timed it the other day. Took 8 minutes to replace original with a K&N drop in filter. Defininately more responsive (no, it's not in my head!) and mpg up by 2 with first tank.

I've done a bunch of data acquisition on the stock 2.4 LE5 intake. It is NOT restrictive, even past the stock redline! :eek:

If you've put a K&N in front of the MAF sensor, just give it some time until you start getting CELs, etc. :nuts:
