Anybody out there use K&N Air filters? I was just reading about them and was wanting to see if anybody had any personal experience using one and if it made a difference in your Wrangler's performance?

Here is a report that backs up what CR said about the K&N filter. And I agree that it is snake oil..after all...I have that snake oil under my hood, and it really was a waste of money.amerijeep said:I don't buy it. I think they are snake oil.

you definately do notice the difference in the rev range..
it revs a;lot harder.it also sounds alot more vicious thanks to the sucking sound.
Ive caked it in mud and debris..taken it off to see if anything got through.. not even a slight dust skin lay on the inside of the tube.
Ive read that the K&N filters arent all that flash.. but I havent had any hassles as yet.. and its been in for well over a year now.its a daily driver.. and a weekend warrior.. the filter does get cleaned frequently though.
