I hear a difference just tapping the go pedal lightly with my K&N . When I stomp on it it gets a lot of attitude .

I have never quite understood the hate for K&N intakes.
They share the same basic design as all the CAI's on the market and their filters are of pretty high quality. I have never had an issue with any of the previous K&N products I have owned. I really think a lot of it has to do with their popularity within certain crowds, such as 'Ricers' and such. It's always fun to hate on the popular kid.

I think k&n is pioneer original in the cold air intake industry.. if I'm correct I believe Spectre performance owns K&N which also purchased air raid. I've also had a really good luck with air raid intakes. I currently have their setup on my 2015 Mustang. so far I'm really happy for the cold air induction set up I heard nothing but good things about it so I could gave it a chance and I like it's fit and finish the best with the Camaro.

Update: finally had time to mess with the lid a bit and got it to fit perfectly! After a week of driving it my mpg supposedly went up to 20. And maybe its just in my head but i think the decel pop actually sounds a tiny bit louder. Bottom line, im very happy with it now.

I don't notice much, if any, mpg or hp increase, but it does look good when you open your hood.
