Will changing the air filter in my car alone improve performance?

No guarantees but it can%26#039;t hurt either.|||not a great deal but it wont hurt|||a little. but not much you ll notice a difference in throttle response. do an exhaust after that and a performance chip.|||If you change it to a K%26amp;N air filter, you will get maybe 1-3 hp and a little better gas mileage, but nothing you would actually notice..|||Yes - changing to a new standard one will improve performance just as its clean. Changing to a sports one will be even better - basicaly more air gets into the mix, the carb adjusts and puts more fuel in to keep the ratios correct, so you get a bigger bang and better performance.|||yes it does, the performance increases are minimal but it does help. mostly it will help fuel economy because the air will move more freely to the engine.|||only if you use a k%26amp;n filter ............but not my much and it will sound good when you rag it !!|||Try a new Fram cleanable air filter (similar to K and N air filters). It will give you free flow of air.

Replacing a clogged air filter will give you a better boost than a regularly replaced filter. Although that just brings you back to targetted performance, not beyond.





If you are not sure, make sure your car is running optimally, as designed (i.e. tune up, oil change, etc.) before looking into trying to improve.





Then you%26#039;ll probably realize there%26#039;s not much you can do to make drastic performance improvements.





Try finding online communities that focus on your car to learn of small boosts you can collect for an overall incremental improvement, with the requisite compromises.





A general example is to %26quot;overinflate%26quot; tires towards the upper limit of the recommended pressure. This will improve your mileage, but at the cost of comfort.





Good luck!|||not enough to really notice it, a K%26amp;N filter in your stock airbox will help some as it lets the engine breathe better.|||If you swap it for a standard replacment then there will be no diffrence unless the old one was really dirty.





If you swap it with a performance panel filter/ cone filter or induction kit. ( See K%26amp;N filter for info and stats) then there may be a slight increase in perfomance depending or car and engine.
