November 26, 2007 - K&N makes drop-in replacement air filters which can be cleaned rather than replaced. K&N claims the re-useable air filter saves money and landfill waste, and that their filters are less prone to air restriction as they get dirty. (Restricted airflow causes a reduction in engine power and fuel economy.) Retail prices range from $35 to $80+ depending on application.
This high-flow air filter has the same dimensions as the factory air filter, requires no modifications to install.
K&N uses premium quality oiled cotton gauze sandwiched between layers of wire screen.
This special design permits very high flow rates, improves throttle response and very long filter life, increases air flow.
When dirty, simply wash, re-oil and re-install (usually every 50,000 miles).
Brand new, genuine K&N Drop-In Air Filter complete in packaging. Replace your old, dirty and restrictive paper air filter with this high quality unit from K&N. This filter is a direct replacement for the OE filter when a stock airbox is required or preferred. Designed for high air flow while providing excellent filtration, the K&N filter will increase horsepower, torque and acceleration. Filter is washable-reusable and will last the lifetime of your engine. A great item that truly works.

More and more people are going with lifetime reusable Green Air Filters. And, that’s leaving OEM and other aftermarket air filters, well, green with envy.
It’s not just the handsome looks or the refined European styling that’s attracting attention. The Green Air Filter simply traps more dirt, fits better and has greater airflow than the competition. And that translates to more power, longer engine life and better fuel economy.
The Green Air Filter uses two layers of woven cotton. The first layer boasts a medium knit that traps bigger chunks of engine-choking filth. The second features a super-fine weave that captures particles down to 5 microns.
The fabric is deeply pleated to create more dirt-snagging surface area. A stiff, green-toned stainless steel mesh protects the cotton filter medium, so it lasts virtually forever. The special hand-molded rubber base creates an airtight seal with your filter box keeping the muck out. Backed by a lifetime warranty. Go Green!
