Yeah, they're out. You can find them on K&N's website, and I have them in my car right now. RCZ tested them and found no gain, however. (Which is why in a few hours I'll be taking the entire stock intake system out of my car and installing the Stillen G3 intake.)

No, you dont want a drop in K&N filter. Almost every time, they have proven to be worthless.

But HP is just torque multiplied by RPM and a constant, so you could recreate the torque curve if you really wanted. Typically dynos *only* measure the torque and the HP curve is created from that.

Kind of weird not to see both though.

thanks for the dyno sheets

i was looking at
Filtration Testing for Amsoil, K&N, Napa, Jackson Racing, Baldwin, and Mazda air filters on a Miata

Its all fine and dandy but was there a stock air filter test? Does the stock setup let in just as much crap as k&n?

arcticreaver · 03-21-2009, 09:56 PM

i spoken with K&N today when i picked up my car. seems like they are also developing new air filters for the Z because they told me that the filters weren't getting enough air through.

They're talking about new filters for the stock boxes I believe. Stillen uses a completely different shape, so that's unrelated.

i've used k&n filters on off road vehicles for years in the worst conditions,sand dunes,dirt roads ,silt beds'the worst' and haven't had any problems with k&ns.my current off road car is a morphic 'tyrant' duel sport with a dynoed 505hp ls2 vette motor.for pics go to morphic ind .com,my car is the orange and blue, and no i don't work for k&N,i'am real estate broker.

i have been in contact with K&N since March I believe. however, I'm still waiting for the intake to be finished.

don't know when it's going to be finished. but they were nice enough to send me the drop in air filter. however, i hope that is not what i get for letting them borrow my car for a week.

davidyan · 08-02-2009, 12:39 AM

^^
I'm waiting for it too. I didn't know of this post and accidentally made another similar thread. They are waiting for more cars to sample test to ensure good fit per an email I received from K&N last week. They estimated 2 - 3 mos.
