OK Dennis. I'm going to say this ONE MORE TIME, and then I'm going to come to OK and put finger prints ALL over your H3

Please, read the following CAREFULLY "The MAF on the other hand (Mass Air Flow sensor) on all 5 of the cars I have bought NEW K&N filters on, has had the oil build-up problem on the resistors, fresh out of the box before any re-oiling ever happened."

I hope this clarifies some things for you as you always like to bring to my attention my lack reading skills sometimes........ touche (if that's even spelled right )

So, let's just ALL agree that I have just had BAD luck with the filters being over-oiled right from the factory. Can we please say this would be the LOGICAL conclusion here? PLEASE?

And Doc, THANKS for clarifying . As I said, I never heard of a MAP until the past week. I'll tell you what though, I'm getting awsome mileage now that there is a new one in there. I got to work today and at 1/4 tank I was at 120 miles on the Odometer. Pretty damn good compared to before.

 

Okay Mikey..before I come to ILL and put a finger up your.......nose....You must be adding extra oil just because it's how you are...

And they are Thermistors

 

Dennis: Don't you think it would be hard for me to add oil WHEN I DIDN'T HAVE ANY!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

The first one I ever re-oiled was his H3 one, and I actually hardly put any on there because I knew what would happen. Thank you for your sincere confidence in my ability to be honest. It's most riteous and noble of you

 

You know of course..I'm just messing with you...right?

 

Thanks for all the information from Dennis, Dvader and others.
So the conclution is that using a K&N filter will increase the HP by maybe 4 or 5 horses at the most. What about using a CAI system without installing the free flowing muffler or cat back system,. I drive a Avalanche 1500 with a K&N force induction system and free flowing muffler, the wife does not like the noise.
So the question is how much improvement verses the loudness of intake. Thanks in advance.

 

My experience has been the CAI is only moderately noisey at full throttle. I'm concerned about exhaust noise two. I added a Corsa to my last car and IMO it was rather noisey.

 

Of course I do

dik

 

Opps...hurt feelings?

 

Nah, not at all. He's just jeolous of my mad pin-striping skills I found I had last night. Who would have known!

 

Oh boy here we go.....take it to the detailing section..
