Name brands does nothing for me. I can get comptech @ 25% off but its still more than the KN. I heard that the foam filter flows a tad bit better than the KN, but I doubt its much different.

Thanks for the response.

Not to mention the Comptech fits like shit and needs a lot of work to keep the rattles to a minium.

My K&N is loud and gorgeous... great accent to the engine bay, the quality is top notch, it's cheaper AND I might add that air filtering systems is pretty much WHAT K&N does

Far as I recall both make about the same power right? I mean neither is a turbo or SC...

So it's about money/the look/the sound isn't it....

Go K&N!!!

I was going to go with the FIPK, but ended up getting the Injen CAI, I would most definitely take the K&N over the comptech
