K&N Intake to Stock
 

I recently purchased a 2012 370z M6 with a K&N CAI. I wanted to be bone stock for warranty purposes. I don't like K&N's cleaning and re-oiling process. I can give a list of reason why I don’t like K&N reusable filters.

This weekend, I swapped my K&N Intake for a stock intake from a 2010 370z Auto. We swapped everything including the MAS because the ones on my car had the same part no and were firmly attached to the K&N tube. I hardly noticed any loss of power at low/mid RPM. I rarely get the RPM above 5000 anyway. The car runs fine.

Do I need to reset the PCM or anything?

You don't HAVE to. But I would just for sh!ts.

BTW I think i texted you for a trade on the K&N intakes trade/deal and you never replied

:( jerk

But you probably had already found someone to trade with haha Happy Modding :tup:

Ted replied 1st. You were the 2nd in line if he decided not too. I had many offers. Sorry :ugh2:

Haha I'm joking it's all good bud!

:confused: "rarely get the rpm above 5000"?
To me that's right in the meat of the power band!

What issues have you had with the k & n? I've used them for years with no problems on cars and motorcycles.

Its just a habit I have gotten into over the years with sports cars. I love the mid range of larger displacement engines. These cars pack a good mid range punch!

My gripe with K&N is the same when I had a 4th Gen Camaro. Both the GM and Nissan dealerships gripe about the MAS getting shorted out. I never know how much oil to put on it either. I rather say "Fix it" if anything goes wrong with a 100,000Mi Warranty. I don't see anything majorly wrong with the stock intakes design. I rather leave all the maintenance to the dealership and enjoy the car. It has more power than I need anyway :eekdance:
