Deevel79 Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 I have a 96 civic ex coupe. I just bought a aem short ram intake from a friend, but it came without a filter. Which filter would provide better airflow: the weapon r foam intake, or, a k&n?. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

90IntegraC1 Posted July 9, 2006 Share Posted July 9, 2006 K&N is very good, espechially because they have that cleaning kit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chubs Posted July 9, 2006 Share Posted July 9, 2006 K&N makes great products, but the only problem with them is that they oil their filters, when you put it on your intake the oil is sucked into the motor and could damage sensors very easily. That happened to my o2 sensor and my check engine light came on for a long time, replaced it and everything is good now but now I just use an AEM dryflow filter.

Attaus Posted July 9, 2006 Share Posted July 9, 2006 I thought the O2 sensor was in the DP and the AFM is in the intake...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
