Morning all,

I am thinking of replacing my air filter in my PatrolDocta Air Box(same as ZD30).

I was wondering if i am better of replacing with stock paper element filter of replacing it with a K&N filter. I have a turbo but don't have a snorkel and air is sucked in straight from the inner guard/engine bay. The truck doesn't do a great deal of off road work, but there are some dirt roads around here I use.

What are your thoughts before I lash out 80 bucks on the K&N, is it worth the coin.

Any thoughts/advice appreciated

Regards

Mark

i would go a k and n personally. the key to a k and n is that it takes the best part of half a day to clean. due to the fact it needs to air dry and the oil needs to soak in to the element the the excess oil removed people who get oil through their system cant follow instructions. dirt sticks to them like sh1t to a blanket and need to be cleaned regularly if tou arnt interested in all that extra effort go a quality paper filter
my 2 cents
