if u want to save $, it's not cost effective to buy a k&n. you gota buy their cleaner, plus their oil to reoil the filter after u clean it. and the oil only lasts thru 7 cleanings.

i had one. walmart was cheaper if i just replaced the filter.

and i didnt noticed any mpg or hp boost w/K&n. now if u used a cold air filter...maybe, but i doubt it
