Default Got to love K&N

600 miles now on my new Jeep, just put in a K&N replacement air filter and my commuting MPG went from 18.5 to just over 21. That $60 will get paid back quick!

What kind did you use? Just a drop in or a whole kit? I'm waiting for my snorkel to come then I'm using a drop in.

Best thing about them is that you can clean them and drop them back in.
X2 what he said. Probably got ahold of some good ga I would say. I would believe 1-2 mpg maybe

I just dropped one of these in as well. I got mine locally for $47.99+tax.

I never tracked my miles before and I dont have the mpg display but I've heard gains of 1-2 mpg which is good for me as I commute 20 miles each way.

Did you all just buy the air filter alone and were able to improve your gas mileage?
