I can see the economic advantage over the life of the car but I still have trouble believing the difference in filter performance. I can't argue with test results but I really don't feel any difference in performance.

Ulllose did an RX-8 dyno test article that just came out in the SCCA Sportscar magazine. A new K&N and Green filter gained 5 - 7 hp over a new OE filter. A very dirty K&N lost power.

I just put it in last night and removed the VFAD at the same time... sounds deeper... other than that no real performance gain.

RX8 dies on idle. Can this be caused by a dirty air box, filter, intake?
