Question K&N came in today!

Well my air filter came in today, boasting that it will increase acceleration power and all that good stuff. Has anyone put one of these in and noticed any real differences? I have yet to drive my car to find out. Later.

well I couldnt wait.... its raining right now, and I went out and stuffed in the new k&n, and took it for a rip. All is well. seems to gained abit of jam! Good deal. guess it was worth the extra few bux. But it is kinda hard to tell in the rain, with wet roads and stuff.

Ive always wondered about K&N filters, but ive never really heard anything solid about them on 12a's. Once it quits raining here take er out for another rip and get back to me, I have thought about getting one but i dont feel like dishing out the extra $$$ over a no name brand unless someone can tell me its worth it. If theres a noticable increase in "jam" let me know and thatll be the next thing i add to my car. Thanks
