I was tuned on a stock filter, but I recently picked up a K&N drop in. Should I be okay, or should I adjust the fuel maps a bit to correct for the new filter?

 

you will be fine with it, it doesnt make that much of a difference if any at all. if you have a wideband go ahead and adjust but if no wideband then dont mess with the fuel maps because my evo didnt come pig rich like everyone claims they are

 

You are talking a few horsepower difference and not worth the time retuning unless you are heavily modified in which you wouldn't be running the stock filter setup anyway.

 

I'm not worried about horsepower difference, I just want to make sure the car is safe.

 

You will be safe, no worries

 

its already been stated that he will be fine so there is absolutely no reason to repeat what others have said

 

Okay..realllly...I'm trying to help others out and you have nothing better to do than harass me about this!! There's absolutely no reason for that! Usually people like to hear more than one opinion to give them a sense of security. So yes there is a reason for this guy to hear multiple opinions stating he will be safe!

What do you think eric06IX?

 

i think you dont read threads before you post, and to be honest no i dont have anything better to do. you dont need to be all butt hurt and ask him what he thinks. simple searches can answer his question anyway

 

Wow....this is a PRIME example of forum a$$ holes.. i cant believe you would even bother taking the time to type that garbage. LET PEOPLE F'N POST!!!! its a collective whole of peoples responses that makes a damn thread.

-Back on topic-
You will certainly be fine with a drop in w/o further need of a tune.

 

i cant believe you took the time too, so what if you think im what you said. it seems like people lately make threads that could be answered just by searching. nothing different about what you did than what i did

 

I understand your thought process 100%. Searching is a great tool. But some topics i search like many others dont relay the exact circumstances we are trying to get help for...thus a quick topic that seems trivial but not an easy find. Yes, i took the time to point out a wrong i thought was made. Im not member hell bent on thrashing others, people are new they need answers now, what are we/the forum for? ANSWERS.

sorry to hijack eric.

 

What you think means nothing to me now and at least your honest. I respect you for helping Eric out, but lost that respect when you disrespected me.

 

It's the eye of the tiger, it's the cream of the fight
Risin' up to the challenge of our rival

 

Wow, this has gotten out of hand...everybody forget about it and go on with their day! No hard feelings...lol

 

WORD!
I had a KnN before the Perrin it was negligible but that doesn't mean in no way shape or form that the turbo wasn't breathing better and power wasn't being made. The best option for stock boxes IMO.
