The K&N number is 33-2134. You can look at www.knfilters.com to find that out. As for ordering one just try www.protege5online.com .

Try doing a search on the net for that Tornado thing. From what I've read, it's a POS.

tornado = 170 bux of coke can bullcrap

its a little cylinder with fins that makes the air "spin" to give better mixture. It might, i repeat might be better on carbuerated engines but not for our fuel injected ones. I could easily spent 50 cents and make my own out of the same stainles steele.

For the price go get yourself a short ram/cold air intake and your get better gains since you are opening up the intake.

Used one for sale

If you don't care if one has a couple thousand miles on it, (these are warranted for 1 million miles, you know) I'll sell you my used one since it is just sitting now that I've installed a cold-air intake. Let me know if you're interested. I'm willing to let it go for $20, including shipping. I'll even clean and oil it for you with one of the K&N filter-charger kits before I send it out.

joshtuttle@hotmail.com

I'll drop it in the mail to the first interested buyer.
Josh

Thanks

Thanks to everyone for their feedback, I have been reading alot of threads the past couple of days and seen that the people that started out with just a K&N filter still ended up getting a CAI. So I just went ahead and went for the good stuff InJen CAI, should be getting here today.........Next step exhaust still trying to get a lil educated w/ that look for an exhaust that is not to loud but just the right tone. I don't want it to sound like a dirt bike.....
