2006 HCH II K&N Air Filter Now avaliable
In regards to an older post I started about recieving a free air filter from K&N: https://www.greenhybrid.com/discuss/...ighlight=K%26N
I receieved an email today from K&N stating that there is now an air filter for the HCHII, however there is still no FIPK or cold air intake. K&N's model number for the filter is: 33-2348

I just thought that you guys might like to know.

The typical claims are for somewhat improved performance (acceleration, less throttle delay, slightly more HP), and some folks claim even better FE.
For sure, the engine will breather a little easier. Whether this translates to any measurable differences for the HCH-II - who knows?
I've had them on a few cars in the past, and they seem to make a little difference for me (less throttle delay). I never noticed any FE improvement, but I wasn't looking for that.
And Adam - thanks for the update. I know you've been on this a long time.

I know people who install parts to increase FE and power but burn more fuel than before the part install because of the horsepower increase or the psychological factor of thinking 'I have more power to use'. Just a thought. Every K&N system/filter I have used I have found in increase in FE, however if I put my foot in it more ofcourse I'll lose that FE.
