These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

6 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

why would i want to install a K&N intake instead of the stock intake on my 2001 carrera ?

POST 2Original post

Quotes source post: 7457272

Most wouldn't; questionable power claims, poorer filtration, and potential for MAF fouling yield a "lose-lose" scenario. When he race teams use a stock type paper filter, you have to ask yourself "Why bother?"..............

POST 3Original post

I would not use K+N filters. You could go to links explaining why there bad however I can tell you first hand that it will pass to much dirt through your filter over time.And if you continue to use it will result in faster engine wear and very dirty contaminated oil in much less of mileage span. The stock filter is fine.

POST 5Original post

If you do get a K&N - or other reuseable filter that gets oiled, be careful not to overoil it. I once bought a '77 GS750 that had a K&N replacement filter. It wouldn't rev beyond 6k. Checked plugs, wires, carbs, stator...everything. Found a forum post that suggested maybe the filter was overoiled causing restriction. Removed, cleaned and dried the filter good. Ran like a champ afterwards. Just something to keep in mind.

POST 6Original post

The sound is good. But the trade off is bad. Save your money and hassle. In the end, not worth it.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
