Review: If this fits your car, this is a must buy to replace your stock air filter! - Superb. I only trust K&N for all my air filter needs as they are a performance product without breaking the bank. This item is fantastic as I bought a K&N filter cleaner spray so is reusable probably for the next 100,000 miles. (Although personally I would wash and clean the filter out earlier than recommended). With a silicone intake pipe attached, this item provided a smooth growling noise and excellent throttle response. Probably gained a few extra HP and gas mileage with this item.
Review: Perfect fit. - VW Passat, perfect fit, K&N means quality. Pricey, but pays for itself. Of course, you will need to give it maintenance (about every 50k miles) washing, drying and re oiling. But for DIY'ers it's quite worth it.
