Like K&N or Air Hog???

I have the open element air cleaner on my car now with a paper element. I was just wondering if I would notice any changes by going with an aftermarket filter like K&N or Air Hog...


If so, is it worth the price...

Yes, the K&N is worth it. Flows more air, and had a lifetime warranty. You can clean it and re-use it again and again.

I noticed a difference.

It's defnitly worth the price, seeing as it gives you better throttle response, better fuel economy, longer engine life, overall increases everything and does not sacrafice a thing. Do a search though, I'm sure you'll find a couple gazillion posts about it...
