I've always had K&N on all my cars and they have never let me down. I dont know the specs on the works or anything, but I would assume you're paying for name with them.
I don't see any real difference btw them at all, just color and name. If its a drop in you're not going to see much of a difference one vs the other if any at all. They both function the same
Pssss go with K&N!

Bill @ WORKS told me that their filter has a larger surface area vs. the K&N & therefore will let more air in since the K&N needs an adapter plate.
He said that theirs flows better VS. the K&N.
Power dif. prob goes to WORKS, but by only a very small margin. Yes I'm aware of the price diff.....& prob NOT worth it over the K&N, but I was curious.

Ok so I emailed K&N tech.... basically he gave me a site Read it!
and said have at it. Didn't really bother to answer any technical questions I had asked. So if you wanna know the specs..... read the FAQs.

THANKS K&N for being so helpful! :thumbsup:
