get rid of the K&N Try #5 at 75 POD Best milage with your setup! Just watch your foot until you get a TQ and VB for the tranny at a minimum!

Ill play it safe for now on #3 smarty says thats highest safe lvl for stock auto tranny. Not that I wont get the itch to bump it up later .

No one seems to like the K-n-N filter. Are they that bad or are other products just noticably better?

Some people don't like the K&N Filters. While I am not a big fan of them I have not had any issues with them in the past. Just keep it oiled.

OK so far I seem to be getting about 3 mpg better milage accordint to the lie-o-meter, I had to tow my little trailer to the dump though and that hurt the average.

Let me know how you like it Seaurchin. I just received mine last friday as well. i have it on #3 also, because of everything being stock. i think I will play it safe as well and keep it there cause all of my truck is stock with 77000 miles on it. Dont wanna tear it up too darn quick!
