xfinrodx Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 Hey, I'm in the market for a good k&n air filter. I popped my current filter off and drove around the block and... my car was like a screaming fast hot rod. Put the filter back on and it's just fast. What to do then? Can't drive around without an air filter... K&N time. There is a stock fitting filter available for my car, but will that perform as well as I'd like? Is there a cold air intake available that I've not been able to find? I drive an xt6 with the 2.7 h6 aaand I want to make it go as fast as possible. This seems like a solid, cheap boost. Any suggestions? Kenny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeshoup Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 I'd register on XT6.net and post over there... You can get a brand new K&N drop in panel filter for ~$50. I'd opt for that. People have built cold air intakes for the XT6, but its all custom. Go to jcwhitney, and buy some mandrel bends, and you can build your own easily.

idosubaru Posted April 14, 2006 Share Posted April 14, 2006 xt6.net for sure. kevin has done extensive dyno testing on intakes, review what he's done and the gains he's had. he got best gains on a cone filter, but like mentioned it's all custom. the K&N does help some as well as removing the intake snorkel going through the fender. pull your wheel and wheel liner and you'll see the big plastic snorkel that needs to come out. it's a silencer of sorts, get it out of there.
