Thoughts on K&N Air Filters
Hey guys so I want to see how everyone feels about k&n cold air intakes I have had one in for about 3 months I have been getting the wrench light coming on ever so often when blasting up large hills and my turbo gets an over boost condition could be turbo sticking the mechanic at ford told me k&n was **** and I should go back to stock what do u guys think??? Do u think the k&n could be causing the turbo over boost code?

K&N is trash. I stopped using them years ago on my race four wheelers, because of the dirt they let in. I can't imagine how much worse it is with a forced induction motor.
I prefer AFE proguard series, they're 7 layers of filter (K&N is typically 5) and they're a dry filter, so no need to use any oil and worry about it messing up the mass air flow.
I am an avid K&N HATER.

Is there any conclusive proof of k&n failires in diesels? Or is it like the '5000 mile, synthetic' only myth that is slowly morphing into 'fact'?
My point being that I have used k&n sucessfully for over 20 years. This includes my bad *** 302 that has seen nitrous with TWO k&n filters, a 14x3 and a lid filter.
I'm NOT saying k&n are the end all of their field. But I am saying 'they' are usually wrong and self education goes a long way. 'They' told me 6-Ohs were a money pit and to avoid at all costs...
