   providing you get a decent one, they allow better air to be inducted into the engine, cooler air = more power, so a well thought out induction with good air flow will = more powAH

   Ask in the performance and engine section mate.
   
   And it just allows more, and colder air into you engine, which allows more fuel to be burnt, which allows more poweeeeerrrrr.

    Really easy to do!, K and n will make a nice roar! Some say the standard induction system with a different filter is just as good if not better ;-)

    If you get a K&N filter make sure you have a cold air feed. An open cone under hood will be sucking up hot air from the engine bay, and you won't get any gain.
