Thanks for making this video man! I do have a question regarding the placement of the K&N filter. I got the same one as you. I watched another video before yours and the guy replaced the original filter with also a K&N filter but the white fluffy padding on the original filter. He took it out, wiped it down and placed it in the air box before placing the new K&N filter. Is this something I have to do?? I just installed the K&N filter and It was easy as can be. Less than five minutes but I through out the old filter with the padding. I hope I don’t need that. Appreciate your input! Thanks

Don't put that filter. Use OEM. Unless you are okay with dirts. I learned it the hard way.

What do you mean? It oils up the maf sensor?

How much does a horse increase?

[@GasBurn_life]

Maybe a few ponies; I did it mainly to remove the old filter. The HP gain was not noticeable.
