Done

So the problem is K&N never built an oil filter for the 2.4, even after the successful implementation in the Sky and Cruise? I guess that would open a new market for those customers too.

Couldn't find how to put my vote in. i'm interested.. found the oil filter.

Click on link; Check ALL in request for Vehicle; fill in the SS information as requested ; it will come up with No info on vehicle; fill out the request form just below the No info on vehicle. Thx.

The filter does absolutely freaking nothing for the engine.

You mean, aside from filtering contaminants from the engine oil of course...lol.

EDIT: sorry didnt read that correctly, thought you said air filter

The filter does absolutely freaking nothing for the engine.

"An aftermarKet & higher flowiNg air filter" will increase CFM into the engines intake, yes. So it will increase power and MPG however, these gains are extremely marginal without keeping that air cool and making sure it gets through the intake plenum with as little turbulence as possible. Then will come the tuning and blah blah blah.

Prove it. The stock filter will match or exceed the K and N.

and to that .. sorry .. I would have to say .. 'prove it'

Oiled cotton gauze filters will outflow a standard paper filter ( not by much) but at the cost of filtration. So yes @firetruck you are correct, the stock filter will more than likely get the job done until your asking it flow an insane amount of CFM.

Now in the case of the SS, the stock intake system minus the actual intake manifold is probably among the best designs out there. Bottom feeding "Ram Air" style lid intake systems consistently pull as much cold air as the engine needs. IMO to pull more power out of this system you'll need to dig a little deeper more than likely into tuning the ECU, and deeper yet improve the intake manifold, feed it more fuel and still run that factory intake.

Looks like K&N made one for the 2.4L up til 2010, then nothing.

the CAI will also make a nice low growl to the SS

The slingshot has the same air box used in the Pontiac solstice

Alpha Powersport just finished a bolt on air intake that added near 10hp and torque without a tune.
