X6M K&N filters
Does any X6M is using K&N Filters on an X6M or X5M engines ?
Is there any noticeable gain, is it worth it ? Thanks in advance for your feedback! |

I took a set of new stock filters out. Replaced them with K&N drop ins.
I tested on same road. 4 degrees cooler. But high humidity and more fuel then other test. ET picked up slightly and MPH went up slightly. I do not know if they made more power due to the variables in the tests. But I do know they do not hurt performance for 73 bucks, give it a shot

Thanks for your DIY instructions, just let me know if your feedback after using your filters for some time already, I know it will be almost impossible to feel more power in such a monster engine, but maybe a little gain in mpg or torque ? |
