Air Filters?

I am running the K&N. Induction noise and supercharger sound are increased but only noticeable when the windows are down and you’re on the throttle. It sounds great and especially good in combination with the 3rd cat delete. In sport or track mode it is absolutely a riot yet very quiet on tour.

I am going to be consistent on oil changes and replace the K&N instead of reoiling. I don’t anticipate any issues.
Can you really hear the difference by changing only the air filter? I ordered the Eventuri intake and will install it soon, but not any air filters so if it does change the intake sound, I am going to order one too.

The Eventuri intake utilizes a cone shaped intake where the stock airbox used a traditional panel filter. You can't use the K&N with the Eventuri.

Just replacing the panel filter with a K&N (or other aftermarket filter) will slightly increase induction noise.
