Well, just a filter change but damn the stock filter hurts air flow. Want to run stock anyway at the track and see how the 450 does.

More power!

Anyone running the stock , super thick and tight pleated paper filters? That is a shame!

I put AFE in everything, as the seal is better (made of poly VS rubber) and surface face has more air flow, as less seal is molded over the flow face.
The stock thick filter, actually blocks air flow coming into the air box from outside and creates turbulence..

I usually keep extras for my friends too.
