Hello DAKsters,
Ever wonder why auto manufacturers spend hundreds of thousands of
dollars to design intake tracts when dropping a K&N on it will produce
10 - 15 more hp? That "annoying" noise is the exact reason! These
people have entire departments with their accompanying huge payrolls
devoted to ergonomics and creature comforts, like sound control. The
hiss is the sound of air being ingested into your engine - you're just
hearing it a little better now....
Later,
