Default K&N FIPK for C5

Hey all

I just picked up a 99 C5 last night.

Anyone here using the K&N FIPK? Any before after dynos? Pros/Cons?

It looks like a nice piece!

BTW I LOVE this car!!

Eventual mod Plans are:
3.42's
TCI 3000 stall
K&N FIPK or ziptie mod with Z06 airbox
Plugs (TR55)
LS6 intake
Z06 catback (If I can find one)
Tuning
Wheels/tires

Nevermind, I just saw you have to cut the shroud. Not interested in that. I'll do the Z06 airbox and ziptie mod with hood seal
