An interesting test from project farm that puts a lot of questions in my mind about high performance air filters. I know there's always a compromise between filtration and flow, but where do you draw the line on an expensive project? I'd rather sacrifice a few horsepower on my daily and have it last. You can always take the filter off at the track or swap it for something "higher flow"... Check it out.

We must've watched this video at about the exact same time! When you posted this I had just finished watching it. YouTube recommendations...

I will still stick with my K&N products always. As you see it increased the 0-60 time, which means better hp and torque. If you keep your filter properly serviced on time and replace it on time you shouldn't have an issue. It's not everyday that I drive through flour ROFL

But what if there’s a better compromise out there? I’ve been doing some reading on Amsoil filters and they seem pretty impressive!
