didn't plan to install it so far...some say it allow too much air flow and suffer the engine, not good for long term use...
btw, the k&n filter is oil type? original is paper type?

QUOTE(guilt79 @ Apr 29 2014, 05:15 PM) ya me too...I heard it since the day I fall in love with cars...I've ask some advice from my uncles (they actually car lovers) 1 of my uncle advice is go ahead with it...somehow all the dirt will become carbon around the engine.. no harm of using it...he is using on his wrx since the 1st day...he say the only problem will occur is the warning check light on mass filter sensor will light on as too many dirt around it and it detected low air flow...he normally clean himself using contact cleaner spray.. my another uncle...not advice due to the reason I stated earlier...large air flow...more dirty flow into engine... so conclusion...I'll wait and see.. |

QUOTE(geniuz @ May 1 2014, 04:39 PM) at least dashboard not so "plastic".. civic more to family car while m3 more to driver's car.. u do not have spacious room for rear passenger compare to civic.. i will use "sport sedan" for m3.. smooth gear change for paddle shift compare to civic while i test driving.. hmmm..it's up to your decision, i've pick m3..and i'm not regreting.. and oh ya...i found the leather seat given as a package for m3 is nicer than civic leather seat.. but if for features, m3 will have less features than civic like auto cruise..
