On air intakes for my car I could've spent £400 for an afe intake. I ended up buying a k&n filter for £120. Never had a problem till I did have a problem. So now Im saving up for the afe filter I could have spent £400 but now ive endup spending £520 total for like a 10hp gain. Live and learn. My wife doesn't know👍🏿

@Prestiged_peck 3 года назад

Fuck K&n I ran one for a week then went to check on it and it was like touch it and your sand man covered in dirt after just one week so I was like fuck that and put my stock intake back on till I could get an amsoil dry cone filter ordered, I only clean that filter like every 3 months and it filters better than the k&n, just doesn't attract as much dirt.

A mod I did on my car are tow rings and tow hooks, but I dont just buy generic ones on wish or amazon, I research around for quality ones that serve a function over aesthetics. It's just a convenience to have them on the car or truck ready to go vs having to get out, search around the trunk, move a bunch of stuff around, removing the carpet panel. especially in sub freezing temperatures.

Aging myself here, but there used to be something called the JC Whitney catalog. You could find the parts you needed, but you had to sift through pages of bolt on scoops (before 3M tape was a thing). Pretty much the same thing, but you actually had to want it enough to mail order the parts instead of impulse buying when you are picking up a new set of wipers.
