Hey folks. Anyone know where the cheapest place is to order the 57 series K&N cold air kit? (K&N #57-2563)? And ... who can get it here this week (by Friday) without charging me an arm and a leg for shipping???

I could have it for you probably on tuesday...

free shipping...
but you would have to come to Nixa MO to get it...
sorry
have you checked any of our vendors here on the site?
www.summitracing.com has fast shipping. That's where I bought mine.

Wes (Innovative Interceptors) might be able to get it for you for a good price and he has fast shipping as well. I'd PM him! He's a vendor on this site.

Why not get a JLT with a bigger filter for less money and support a site vendor?

I considered this, but:
1) Don't want it to rub my hoodliner.
2) Seems like K&N replacement filters would be easier to find (if needed).
3) K&N reports 17.2 hp gain. JLT reports 10-12 hp gain. 5hp-7hp is a whole other mod (pulleys, spacer, etc.).
4) Looks like it would be take up precious elbow room for other wrench turning.
5) The K&N pipe looks like a straight (less restrictive) intake pipe.
I could be persuaded if those objections were addressed. Especially to order one with a heat shield and in Silver Birch.

The JLT pipe, which is what I have, is a lot shorter than the K&N tube since the filter is much bigger than the K&N. So there is less travel for the air to flow into the TB.

I Got Mine From E-bay. Received It In 1 Day Directly From K&n In Riverside, Ca. If You Are On East Coast, It Will Take 4 Days To Get.
3) K&N reports 17.2 hp gain. JLT reports 10-12 hp gain
From what I have read the K&N #57 and the JLT are nearly the same(save for price). K&N #63 claims upwards of 17hp gain though...
I debunked the K&N 17 HP versus other people's 12 HP gain. Search this forum for '#2 Progress Report' to read all about it. They actually make the same HP.
I bought K&N because I think it looks so much better.

1) A felt furniture bumper cures that.
2) The JLT filter is a standard size and readily available from JLT and/or from K&N. Larger filer area means less resistance to flow and better filtration.
3) Fast car debunked this. the k&n claim is at the widest spread of HP gain while the JLT measures the diff at peak HP. Upon a peak at a dyno graph, the JLT actually makes power all the way across the band.
4) When we did line locks, we had to remove Blackmobile's K&N and we did NOT have to remove my JLT.
5) The JLT's larger pipe actually stores a section of air for a quicker throttle response.
JLT is available in you choice of color.
Try getting help from K&N, but then give Tucker a call. JLT is there for us.
JLT is a site vendor, thus help keeping the lights on here. K&N is not.
If you DO go k&n, call DR or Lidio and keep in the family.

Looks like there's been a serious splintering. I never thought it'd be possible for this to happen to a group of owners of a car model that sold no more than 14000 copies over 2 model years. Kind of scary, when thinking of the scale. Makes one think that maybe it'd be a good idea to do some introspection and think about what each of us needs to do to build a solid community, analyze what it is we're all honestly looking for by belonging to this community.
