People that have K&N drop in filters, i was wondering what size am i suppose to get? because I'm having some trouble finding the size that said would fit my car in those catelogs.

K&N Part number is 33-2133. This is NOT for the type-S

The Type-S part number is 33-2178.

Go to www.martelbrothers.com Thats where I ordered mine from.

Hope this helps

is there any performance gain with a drop in filter?

will it add any addtional noise to the cabin?

how much is it?

thanks for the info!

no noise added. Performance gain maybe. Try removing the resonator and when adding a new drop in filter, supposedly it almost adds the same effect of a CAI. Almost! And with removing the resonator there is a little roar, but it's good roar.

and the roar isn't as loud as cai

On the contrary, I have a K&N and note a deeper growl under hard acceleration than prior to having the filter. I notice a slight improvement in gas mileage and have documented this extensively at Acura-TL.com. There is a theoretical 2-3 HP gain, but I don't know anyone who's actually dynoed their car, can anyone share this info? In any case, 2-3 HP isn't enough to notice, and it's not why I bought the filter.

I've had the exact same experiences.

hmmm maybe it's different with the TL, but when I added k&N to the Yukon XL, I didn't notice much more noise added.

Well, next time I'm in the Springs I'll show you My parents live there and I drive there from Cleveland 1-2 times a year.

i had the K&N drop in. I can tell you I had NO added noise whatsoever, but i did have a couple hp gain.

more toward the top end, it just plain pulled harder. good mod...and no trade offs that i was aware of. :bigok:

Keep in mind that it's not very noticeable. It just seemed to growl a little more when you got on it before hitting VTEC.
