Re: [DML] airbox performance numbers

[tobyp@xxxx]

Hello All - This is my first post to the DML, although I've owned my 
"D" for over 13 years (VIN 2248). In response to this thread ... 
there is a K&N airfilter element that works just fine in the stock 
airbox. The panel filter element is a little short, but can be 
snugged up with a length on vacuum hose used as a spacer. I've had 
this in my car for almost a year. K&N filters have virtually no 
restriction, and are very effective at cleaning the incoming air. 
The throttle response improvement is noticeable. The part number is 
NM33-2002. Just a thought for those that want to do things right ...
