So I decided to test the most common bolt on horsepower mods.
For test, I test the K&N filter for the stock air box and the OEM paper filter.

Am a professional mechanic. K&n has been around since the 70's and always quality if you maintain them well. As for every product , some people don't , and for some reason these are the ones thar bad mouth it. In Canada gas is 6$ a gallon and these filters instantly added almost 3% of fuel economy on all family vehicule , so they pay for themselves. For those who fear engine damage (?) , we have 3 Toyota's , one with 350 thou miles and the other 2 above 250 thou miles , all running k&n replacement air filters , for more than 10 years

I’m using K&N drop-in air filters for a year now. The immediate benefit I observed was the cleaner airbox with the K&N. Using the OEM filters, it still allowed some dust through the filter and leaves a very very thin layer of dust on the, supposedly, clean side of the filter and airbox near the MAF sensor. Now, I know that with the K&N filter, clean air will be go through my engine. Everything else like increase in engine output and better fuel mileage is already cherry-on-top.

@celloprof 10 месяцев назад

I just remember in the past with my 1993 G20 conversation van 5.7 going up a hill losing power doing like 55mph with a paper filter, then a k&n on the same hill and a decently loudish WOOOOOing sound not losing any power. Getting of at the exit on the same road from being in Overdrive with the paper filter... OOPS, give it the gas vehicle cuts OFF at the traffic light that just turned green! Same road OOPS left it in Overdrive Again WOOOOOOO! LOTS of power! Those conversion van filters small! The 6.2diesel filter in the same g20 van was much bigger🤷🏻‍♂️

@TheMinuteMasters 5 лет назад

starent veveo So the dyno tech told me that turbo charged engine’s see the most horsepower gain with cane and filters and cold air intakes. (50 hp gain on the new stingray corvettes) This is mostly because the turbo charger can’t suck enough air in through the stock filters. I’d say go for it, but make sure it doesn’t void any warranties.

The paper filter is the best a filtering. I read a study by one guy and he tested a few performances filters against the oem paper filter. The paper filter filtered the most dirt as measure in microns than any of the others. I’m addition to have the best flow when clogged. Once the K&N clogged it performance worse than a paper filter.

I didn’t do any comparisons. However, there used to be a study publish somewhere where someone actually bench tested all of the filters I want to say green filter did the best of the performance filters. But ultimately a standard paper filter had the best air flow when it started to load up with dirt.

@CJ-wc6lf 3 года назад

Great video and very informative!! I wish more people compared air filters. I didn't expect that with no air filter. My advice after watching 'Project Farm' testing 6 different filters, including K and N is to use paper because it catches way more debris than K and N, and K and N tends to cause problems with the intake sensor due to the oil from what Scotty Kilmer says. The few horsepower isn't worth it unless you're on a track. Wix did best on Project Farm and second best was that Purolator One you had. I just put a Wix in my 2013 Lexus RX350 and a Wix XP cabin air filter also. The Wix also did well in Project Farm's 0 60 test.

Back to back runs without any cool down time affects the runs results negatively. Considering you didn’t do all test at the engines coolest points. Actual negatively affecting results as engine heats up back to back. Reason people change the radiators to keep the engine running cooler for longer periods for best performance.

@TheMinuteMasters 2 года назад

What I didn't show on the video were the cool down periods. Basically, we would let the truck idle and then turn the engine off. A large barn fan was setup in front of the radiator to increase cooling airflow. The dyno I used was run by a highly reputable guy in the area.

@robertw1871 3 года назад

What’s your 02 sensor saying with no filter, I’ll bet the fuel trim is running lean and that’s why you’re losing power… Probably need to tune it for that much increase in flow…

@TheMinuteMasters 3 года назад

It’s an OBD1 truck. So I don’t have that read out. I would agree there needs to be some tuning to make the CAI work. However, K&N never instructs the end user to get his engine tuned. In my case, you can’t tune OBD1 without adding extra tune able components to the ECU.

@jumpercable20 3 года назад

Most of the complaints I've seen on RU-vid about K&N filters is not about performance, Most of the people that don't care for them seem to think that they do not filter the air good enough compared to OEM filters. I've been using K&N for 35 years on over a half dozen vehicles so can anyone out there dispute the fact that K&N filters out particles as good as or better than K&N? One way might be to take a survey and see how many off road races through the desert are using K&N filters and what is the engine failure rate because they use K&N?

@TheMinuteMasters 3 года назад

You make good points. I read a study a while back where the guy tested 7 different filters on some type of particle reading equipment. His findings were that the K&N allow more of these micro particles through than a paper filter. His study also concluded that as the K&N filter collects particles it becomes far more restrictive than a paper filter with similar build up. Now, how does this test stand up to real life? Who knows. As you said, you’ve been running these filters for years with no problems. Are guys being too picky about the kinds of micro particles that get through a filter. Probably.

@SlikLizrd 2 года назад

YES !! The K&N RULES , and desert racers have been proving it for decades !! Desert racers encounter more filter-clogging dust and dirt in one afternoon than Joe Syxpak sees in 2 years !! U-Tubers that test 'em use faulty methods that give false results, and the bad info gets repeated over and over. One problem is that people want them to LOOK CLEAN , so they clean and re-oil them TOO OFTEN, which degrades the filtering quality and leads to the MAF Sensor problem. K&N says to clean your K&N filter every 50,000 MILES -- but do they listen ?? NO !! They don't pay any attention to the manufacturer's instructions, 'cause they think that the resident Screeching Geezer knows EVERYTHING about anything, but he does not.

@@TheMinuteMasters Yeah you should have have the 4R70W then. Check out the letter on the tag door under TRANS. If its a U then that pretty much nails it.

Youre wrong about turbulence. When you remove the filter it leans the car out too much and loses power.

Charles Seara That’s true. Either way, it’s not a good strategy to increase horsepower on a stock engine with no tuner.

removing air filter gives you more power only when your moving on streets creating wind ramming .car sitting in a shop even with fan isnt the same thing.

@funcool32 3 года назад

Don't deviate from the manufacturer's specs to try to gain some cheap hp. Remember anytime you do something to gain hp, you impact performance or the life of your vehicle. Filters are supposed to filter air.... and provide clean air to the motor. These aftermarket filters that claim they increase hp don't filter the air as well as the manufacturer's paper type. And many use an oil to attract the dust and dirt because the mesh is not as dense. So you always end up under oiling, over oiling, or not oiling enough. You think you're saving money by buying a washable filter, but the cleaner and oil costs around $50 and you need to do it every 6months or so. Not to mention, the Vehicle's ECU is preset for a certain fuel air ratio, so you're achieving nothing. I'd go oem every day of the week!

@TheMinuteMasters 3 года назад

I agree 100%! I ran this test just to show what possible gains can be had with these filters. Most agree 5 hp is low enough to be within error territory. Plus these filters cause all kinds of issues on MAF sensors.

@funcool32 3 года назад

@@TheMinuteMasters thanks for your response, and yeah you're right about the sensors. There may be some aftermarket washable filters that filter as well as the oem, but then you're not gaining anything in hp and just paying an exuberant price for a filter. Lol. Everyone thinks it's because the oem is trying to make money, but the ecu settings are designed for that filter, not high flow. Have you thought about a follow up video to test the filtration quality of K&N vs Paper?

@TheMinuteMasters 3 года назад

@@funcool32 No problem man!🤙 Exactly! Most performance parts don’t work on stock vehicles. Modified and tuned vehicles is a totally different story. I haven’t. I guess I could put a secondary filter in the intake to measure/show the dirt that gets through the K&N filter.

@RebeccaCampbell1969 3 года назад

3:30 NO! Air filter can't modify the air flow as modifying it to pass the rest of the induction ducts... I am sorry but you need a crash course of fluid mechanics and physics to understand how wrong was what you said. It's a restriction, a known restriction (ecu) which adds to how the fuel mix is controlled later on the injection. An old carb round filter could, maybe, but no it's just a restriction... And with out it the low and high mix adjustments would require change, to later adjust when putting back the filter. Good experiment on the dyno, but it is one of thousands already done since the 1800's... Well minus a modern dyno of course

@TheMinuteMasters 3 года назад

I don’t pretend to be a scientist. I just regurgitate what K&N advertises and what floats around the internet. The ECU definitely is a restriction that is not correctable without modifying it. My video is to show case this product in plug and play manner as advertised.

@pointsur67 5 месяцев назад

You did not need to go at him like that.

@RebeccaCampbell1969 3 года назад

With out tuning the system of the car to actually require more air volume... Any intake mods, including a better filter, ARE USELESS OR EVEN COUNTERPRODUCTIVE No better fuel economy, and no more power... Perhaps even less Same for the exhaust If turbo a better inter cooler (thicker) could actually improve low end power... But then again the system is programmed for that TMIC resistance to flow, so no not even that

@TheMinuteMasters 3 года назад

I agree 100%! However, OBDI vehicles need to have the ECU removed and modified in order to tune them. That procedure is hardly plug and play which is how K&N advertises their CAI.
