Re: Chrome intake with K&N
I've always run a K&N intake on my 91 YJ -- AZ, NM, NV, UT and the
mid-atlantic states. I've got 255K on my Wrangler and it's still going
strong. Therefore, I don't much believe that the K&Ns are any less capable
than the OEM paper filters. Proofs in the pudding.

Hi Mike,
Agreed, but a "new" paper element isn't going to hinder any stock
engine's breathing.
