Would anybody or has anybody actually put in a K&N air filter does it make a difference or is it useless when it comes to the GS450h.

 

Don't expect much, it might sound slightly better and add 1hp The best thing is its re-usable so you don't replace it when you go for major services, which can save some money.

 

If i hadnt gotten the prepaid services then i would get one...i got one for my IS..

 

So in other words its probably useless to get one!

 

I would not say its useless. The K&N filter is built far better than the cheap OEM paper filter. It will trap more dirt but it also lets more air through the engine. However its not instant 5hp mod.

 

Alright well if it makes a difference I will order, I just know that I won't hear a shift change and I think thats getting the best of mean in terms of buying this. But I shall purchase.

 

not worthless. if you looked at my thread made not too long ago you'll see I picked up 2-3mpg. As for power, don't know don't care. It makes an annoying sound at wot.

 

Isn't there still a problem with the current K&N kits as they don't match up with the MAF?

 

Naw this K&N filter works fine I just hear a straight vrooooooooooom sound no shifting very weird. I did find it funny that the the filter was the same shape as the 06' GS 300 thought it would be the same as the new GS 350's

 

Oh just the filter. No intake pipe?

 

Naw wasn't feeling like doing that much since I want enjoy the shfting sound at a louder volume!

 

Do you have the part number for the 450h K&N filter?
