As far as doing a comparo, I've been tuned to keep my stft and ltft pretty stoich (if that's the correct term?). Since I have the K&N full intake, I already have a lovely spooling sound (neighbor's teen kid drools over the SS everytime I drive by and he's outside) and with the Forge BPV I installed, my "pshh" sounds are nice and loud, more like loud sneezes actually lol.

well there is also a piece in the box that is keeping the filter in place, i mean im not going offroading and bouncing all over the damn place. i dont think my filter is going to come out, as for dirt and what not, again. im not going offroading. i dont think there will be a problem, ill check it every once and a while for crap in it, but its still in the box so i dont think im going to have a problem, ass for the power, im not noticing any difference from a stop, or from a roll for that matter. the only difference i can tell is that is sounds so much better now!

I just read this thread last night, I just got back from a drive with the lid off. Oh man does it sound sweeeeet.

Ok that's it. I gotta go out there and take the lid off. ChevyguySS switch to K&N filter, it has a stainless clamp, or go get one and add stainless clamp to your stocker so it can't leave ya. Got to go now

It does sound cool but IAT's were between 3-8 degrees higher with the lid off.

I didn't notice much difference. Did notice my K&N was dirty, and a little oily, so I put the paper one back it, so I could shampoo the K&N, and let it dry. I can,t feel any difference there either. So I think I'll run paper and throw it out when it's dirty, I'm tired of the shampoo & oil gig.

After reading all of these, I did have to go try it myself too and yes the sound factor is real cool. Not throwing any codes either, so I think I will just leave it like this for awhile.

ChevyGuySS

so is it worth buying the K&N filter? wont that throw some codes? are you going to keep driving around without the lid on?

thats how im running it everyone

There is no moisture wick on that.
When you blow your engine, don't ask "why?"

You should look into the Hydro Shield
