Any benefit to K&N Filters on a stock X5M?
Also...what are the white filters behind the air filters? They also looked pretty cruddy. Thanks in advance.

Better air flow lifetime air filter There will be no lights, that's silly. But I would recommend you pull the carbon filters which are a real hp sucker while you are installing your K&Ns.

Well...pulled the stock filters tonight along with the carbon filters and installed the K&N's.
This could be due to the stock filters being FILTHY but there is definitely a difference. The truck is snottier and more responsive. There's no doubt about it. I always thought the truck felt a little choked and i even mentioned to my mechanic at my end of warranty check. Granted we're not talking a huge difference at all...but the truck definitely woke up from the change. would a change of stock filters have done the same....maybe. But in whatever case i'm very happy. I took the truck for a spin around the block and all i could think to myself after i let off the gas every time was...."Now the truck feels like it needs a tune..." The bug.....has bitten. Someone talk me out of calling Velos tomorrow......

K&Ns are a total scam.
It has been established, yet people drink the cool aid |
