Nissan 370Z Forum  

This definitely isn't a hp boost!

Could you hear this? Could you feel it lose power? What were the symptoms. I am glad it was so simple in the end.

To be honest it felt a little sluggish couldn't tell if The power was just getting old or what?! And that's cuz I just put in the stillen LW pulley! Also I took down a back road and hit 125 kinda slower than usual however I blamed it on my windows being down and the possibility my passenger (gf) was gaining some weight o.O anywho I decided to clean out the filters for once and noticed the cup and face palmed myself -.-

Wow, I guess those K&N filters really do prevent debris from getting into your engine!

There is your problem, it's easier to ask for forgiveness that permission. If I ask my wife for permission she is mad twice, once when I ask and again when I don't listen! I also recommend paying all the bills and never tell her no when she wants something!
