... Not that I take everything from that site as Gospel but I know anyone that posts on that particular site has to know something about what they are talking about or they will be heckled for months.....

Well.... after reading 1000's of posts and threads on many automotive forums, and actively participating in a 1/2 dozen, it is my worthless opinion that there is a lot of Bravo Sierra posted by people who think they know what they are talking about.  Experiences can vary and so do the facts.

In the words of Albert Einstein...

"Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds."

Regarding LCE's power tips... all good stuff.  However, I do have an opinion on K&N air filters and I have posted a number of times in the past on the topic.  I ran K&N filters on all three of my sand rails for about 8 years.  I am very familiar with them.  I have some questions about their "high flow air filter element with a 1 million mile warranty", and the power increase they claim.  20 years ago I don't remember seeing any published information about their claims. Now, at least on their website, I can request in writing the test data that supports their claims.

If anyone is interested, I will happily elaborate on MY 8 years of experience.
