K&N filter question...

[Supernova]

What exactally will one do for my i4 Galant. I'm suspecting it won't bump it up many horses but a few at least. Will it make it sound better too? And i know the accel is better too. Oh, and about how much will one run me($)? Thanks and stuff. ^.~

Are you reffering to a slide on cone style or just a replacement stock style one?

[Supernova]

Replaced stock ones. But is either one better than the other?

[Dilemma]

in most cases, the cone filter is much better than the OEM style. but yea it depends on the filter, if you keep the airbox stock, cone fitler is better, but if you flip the airbox, they are almost the same. if you haven't purchsed one yet, i'd go for the cone filter with adaptor so you can use it later when u get an aftermarket intake.

i remember i think it was turbo magazine that put a oem style filter in a 6g, double digits people....

Ok, since i'm going to put a cold air intake, I need to go for the cone and the adapter then. How much will it run me approx.?

EDIT: Will the Cone filter sound like the OEM style flipped over, or different?

$26.00 for the adapter - with a "N&N "STYLE" Filter.
The real K&N filter that fits the adpter is $47.00 at my local Auto Zone.
You can get the adapter here :

If I get a K&N filter and replace the stock one, flip the air box thing around.(like in the totourial). Does it really increase preformance and sound like say, a cold air intake?

what is the size of the K&N filter that fits the adaptor?

The basic answer to your question is yes, it will increase performance and sound because your engine is getting more unrestricted airflow. Will it increase as much as with a CAI? Absolutely not. But you will notice a difference until you can decide what your final intake mod will be.

if you are building a cold air intake (takes some work) go for the cone filter. if you will be buying an CAI, now's the perfect time.

as for sound, the cone filter will sound like the oem flipped over but a lil bit louder

I think i'll go with the CAI filter when I get a cold air. It seems thats what most of all have.
