Hey all,

 

I have a K&N Filer in Housing (with holes drilled) and a Pipercross for my 1.5inch HS4.

What one would be the better one to go for performance wise?

I only have an 850 so I know there is never going to be major power but every little helps :)

 

 

Much ta

Matt

For an 850 the difference wouldn't be noticeable. At the power levels you'll be able to produce get whatever you feel look better. I would personally go for the K&N as i've seen pipercross foam deteriorate and the engine ingest it.

I prefer the look of the Pipercross but hear better things about the quality of K&N.
