  • K&N VS Mac Filter

    I see that Mac offers a performance air filter for the f bodies for about $24 vs $63 for the K&N. Look to be the same construction. Anyone have the Mac that can comment on it?

        I did a search on Kool Blue. Turns out it is owned by Accel corp, so it is a "ACCEL Kool Blue" filter. Do a search on that and you will find it sells for about $25 plus shipping. The same as the the Max.

        SOOOOOOOO.........

        The question still hangs in the air...... Plus the addition of Kool Blue........

        Any one know the difference between K&N and Kool Blue and Max?

        All you "seat of the pants" owners need to pony up because I doubt anyone will stick a 200hp V6 on a dyno just to compare 3 different air filters.

        Please prove me wrong...........

          they all seem pretty similar to me, all made of a cotton material, the filters are probably identical, your just paying for the name

            Went ahead and ordered the Accel Kool Blue filter. I'll let you know how it performs compared to a new stock filter I put in a few days ago. $19.95 for the filter and about $10 to ship. Still cheaper than a K&N filter anywhere.

            After work it off to the parts store to look at plumbing fittings for the angled throttle body. If Lowes and Depot don't have what I need in PVC and rubber, intakehoses.com has it in all rubber fittings. Just costs more.
