Hi folks, I'm new here and haven't posted much. I hope I put this in the right place, if not, sorry in advance.
I'm not really knowledgeable about cars. I know a little, but not a lot. I have a simple question to ask. 2 questions, actually.
I installed a K&N filter. I was wondering what the HP difference would be between that, and say, the K&N CAI system. I know it would take out the "bellows" or whatever, but would that really add anymore HP to justify the cost of buying another K&N with a CAI kit? Obviously I could just find the pipe to use with my existing K&N filter I suppose, but I think that would be harder to find new. TIA for your input!
Also, I am looking to increase my airflow throughout the stang (obviously), but I would also like to do this with the exhaust in some way. I don't want a loud exhaust like most people do though, so that is the catch. Is there anything I can do that would increase exhaust airflow without making my car louder? I don't mind if it gets a 'little' louder. I've heard Magnaflow exhaust is good for flow, and that they don't get too loud. I had a Camaro with Flowmaster, and it droned too much for me, and it was only a V6. But I also understand that could be the reason why it droned.
So, should I look into changing my stock exhaust mufflers, or should I look at some other form of increasing the airflow? Or, is there even another way to increase it without changing the mufflers?
Sorry the post was so long! I would appreciate any help you guys can give.
I'll be gone to the beach for the weekend, so if I don't reply right away that will be why. I'll be looking for your replies when I return. Thanks!
