Does anyone can confirm that K&N 33-2647 is correct replacement and do not have gaps around the seal?


Thank you.

Got mine today from k@N not a problem!!! tight fit, needed some pressure to push cover down to lock the three hold down clamps!! That was all. Car seems to have a little more umpf , from the line. Will let you know if mpg is improved. Price was 34.99 from autoanything.com one week from K@N. SCAN GUAGE will prove it!!!

Got it and it's great!

I also installed my 33-2647 today. Fit perfectly. At first it seemed a bit small in the airbox, but when placed into the lid, the seal is perfect. You do need to put the filter in the box, then put the lid on-you'll never get the lid and filter on as a single unit. The whole process took three minutes.

I didn't drive it much since it has .8 gal in the tank, but it does drive better. Noticeably crisper throttle response. One strange (but very positive) thing happened. My driveway goes uphill to the street; it rises about 15 feet over a run of 75 feet. When backing the fortwo up the hill, it took a lot of throttle just to get the car moving, almost like the parking brake was on. With the K & N, it just backed right up the hill with very little movement of the gas pedal. I tried it a couple of times, and backed up another driveway down the street...this filter has really freed up something in the breathing department.

Got mine yesterday (K&N 33-2647 ) and installed it at lunch time... getting the filter box top off was tight (not a lot of room to move!) -- took off the clamp and put in the new filter... perfect fit!

Just like everyone else has said... seems a little more responsive when I push on the gas pedal!

brian r, congrats on a great deal and I'm glad it fits perfectly!

I just spoke with Customer Service at StreetsideAuto and they told me that the K&N 33-2647 will be in stock on 15 August, and if you order before 4PM it will ship on the same day.

Price will remain at $30.65 including free shipping, so feel free to price match with AutoAnything or any other online site.

Here's the link to the K&N 33-2647 at StreetsideAuto, so keep checking for availability.
