Let me know what kind of an improvement that make. -Chad | | | 03-07-2005, 08:58 AM | #3 | Senior Member Join Date: Feb 2004 Location: Port St. Johns, Florida Posts: 2,242 | i am running one of those filters right now. opinion of it? well it comes saturated in a green liquid and that is thick as dishsoap. cheaper than a K&N. performance increase? I doubt it. | | | 03-07-2005, 03:57 PM | #4 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2004 Location: Manassas, VA Posts: 4,129 | Is the saturated dish soap filter a good thing?

I do like the fact it goes under the car, I'd hate to lose trunk space. That's the beauty of a hatchback, you can drop the rear seats, and put your house in it.
