K&N drop in
Is it really worth getting, and which one do you buy? I've been thinking of just getting one for now, but I wouldnt think they had one out specifically for the SS/TC.

I love K&N
as soon as I dropped mine in I could immediatley notice boost building quicker and I could hear the factory return style BOV
I like it ... it is worth the 30 bucks ..
Go to Advanced autoparts and they have our cars in the system but same airfilter is used for the 2.2's pretty sure ..

There is no micron rating on the K&N or really any other filter. They say on their site that their filtering efficiency is between 96-99%. GM minimum requirement for filtering efficiency is 98.7%.

Same for the 08 SS, I just got back from Autozone after buying a drop in filter.
Its alittle bit louder, but nothing to spectacular. Anything is better than stock though.

uh...i believe the cleaning interval is a lot longer than that. of course depending on the conditions where you live (paved vs dusty roads). drop in filters are cleaned about every 50000 miles if driven on mainly paved roads.
