Air Filter Replacement

my opinion: it's really as simple as it sounds, better airflow equals less filtration, better filtration equals less airflow -- but, the discrepancies are minor. personally i stick with the stock infiniti/nissan air filter.

i believe there's recommendations in that same link on where to buy, but you could google to find the best price once you decide what to get. can't recall where i ordered mine from, nissan parts or something (it wasn't the dealer).

I just use an air jet nozzle on my air compressor to clean the filters w/ every oil change and I rarely buy new filters, the OEM filters are pretty tough.

I just put the K&N 33-2399's in mine this past weekend. I can't speak to these yet since I just put them in but if they are like the rest of the K & N filters I've had, then they'll be worth it for savings and hopefully a few extra miles here & there. I am always cautious not to over oil them and haven't ever had any problems with maf sensors or anything so far.

There's no free lunch, you get freer flow, but sacrifice better filtration, OR you sacrifice some airflow, but get better filtration. For what it's worth, I wouldn't even let all that extra dirt into the engine of my escort, that is to say, if I even had an escort.
