In conjunction with the first oil change in my 98, I installed an OEM
style K&N air filter. After a half tank of gas, it seems as though
there's a subjective improvement throughout the powerband. The biggest
gain seem to be in the midrange. Downshifts have a larger "grin factor".
What all this means in terms of actual numbers, I haven't a clue. Anyone
have dyno numbers on a 318 w/auto before and after the K&N?
Mileage seems to have improved about 2mpg. Is this consistent with
others using the K&N?
BTW, I learned that wearing gloves while removing the oil filter is NOT
optional. OUCH!
