Has anyone replaced the stock air filter with a K & N filter? Have you noticed any performance upgrade? Increased engine noise?

Yeah, I have installed mine now for about a month. No dramatic increase in sound or engine performance. If you really know your car tho, you'll feel it acclerate just a little bit faster. The fuel milage got a little better also. For $35 it isn't that bad. A lot better then the stock one, you won't ever have too repalce it.

I've had my K&N filter now for almost 2 months and the biggest difference that I have found is my fuel economy has increased by almost 1.5 m.p.g.. Also the intake has a nice sounding "growl" to it under hard acceleration.
Along with the increased m.p.g. and a million mile warranty I will never have to replace this filter. At a price of around $35 to $40 you just can't go wrong!
