stock or aftermarket filter
« on: April 29, 2010, 01:00:20 PM »
i see online filters for about 15 bucks, and the honda brand for 34

in an airfilter for a 350f is there a real difference?

if youre going to use a stock type paper filter (instead of a k+n replacement type) spend the extra money for the Honda part. theyre more money but this really is a case of you get what you pay for.

And if you go with a K&N fabric one, know that they have a little better flow characteristics (over the stock one) and might affect jetting.  On the other hand, you'll never have to replace it.

You can check out my super-ghetto Uni air filter mod for the 350f thread too.  It's somewhere around here...
