i'm not sure but if it's a normal k&n 57i you will most likely lose power as they draw in hot air from the engine

Is BMC really the best way to get more power?

Genuine carbon fibre filter housing says "yes"

Just wasnt sure if the diameter is different

I have a bmc cda already

doesnt matter if the diameter doesnt fit, im sure you can buy reducers to make them fit... imo

Does it get rid of that crappy lag 6n2's seem to get?
