I am going to Gurnee VW this morning to have them change all of it for me. I will let you all know if I feel an improvement in acceleration and MPG. From what I have been told by others that have dropped a K&N in their 2.0 that they have noticed an improvement. Plus with the price of petro dropping, I have been feeding Buddy 93 octane gasoline and have noticed a difference with that alone.
