80 Series K&N vs. OEM Air Filter

[RavenTai]

94Landcruiser...just to confirm was the K&N filter you had the same size as what I had? I'm curious if the filter I had was the correct one or just one the PO found that fit...Not that it would change my view, just curious.

that small filter is the "correct" K&N part number for our trucks,

Here is a pic of the PO installed one that came out of mine

Yes, same filter. I saw NO change in performance. The OEM has been in for a few months & is working great.

Has anyone cleaned the OEM? Is it just follow the instructions printed on top & when is it time to clean it?

Thanks.

Yanked the K&N and tossed in an OEM last night


I just don't see the point of having a K&N in a rig like this anyways


It's not like we're out racing these things


Think I'll use it as a snorkel pre-cleaner
