    Get a drift panel filter from supercheap. Same as a K&N but a lot cheaper.

    go back to the VR - VS holden commodore (1993 - 1997) link at the top of the page and click it, then click on sticky:buick and ecotec V6 performance upgrades. there is some good advise in there.

    As long as the filter isnt dirty and clogged then it will perform the same as the high flo filter trust me

    Filters are just there to stop the dust and to let the air flow through all filters cheap and expensive will do the job if they are clean,there is no point waisting money on the expensive ones I have the stock in my car for the last 4 years
