Well, just in case he missed it, I'm on the right & Hickman is on the left. But I've got a sneaky feeling it was dircted just at me, while ignoring the other guy's equal input (his 77 postings).
He meant it for me, I meant it for the both of us. |

It was called sarcasm...we already covered this topic. Do I need to do a review?

Really?? Because you told me that I mentioned my Taco a year ago and now you are saying that I said it AFTER you talked about your grandpa's Avalon which was this month. That's a big difference. Can't make up your mind?

Exactly, you missed it or what some people might say ignored the questions that had answers that would conflict with your loaded claim.

p.s. To get us back on topic, have you tested your Yaris yet on your claim. Or are you still waiting on your Ford and your Mini to get back from Florida? |

What claim would that be? Valero gas works great in my Yaris? I did say this back on page one: "My view on oiled filters, for a stock Yaris like mine, is it'll save money when you're able to re-use it, but it's sure not worth it if you're thinking it'll give you big savings at the pump and will give you power that can be felt." ...and it's a sound mod You dispute that? Lot's of people have made Yaris and non-Yaris claims on this thread, good and bad...usually if it was bad you tried to put it all on me, instead of taking it up with the one that actually made the claim, for some reason. btw, I noticed you didn't multi-quote. Guess you'll have to break up my posting and make several replies?

1. Evasions?? I get us back on topic and then you get us off topic. Then I get us back on topic and then, once again, you get us off topic. We talk about Toyota’s and you talk about Ford’s. We talk about Toyota’s and you talk about the Mini. We talk about air filters and you talk about oil filters. So looks like you are the one with the evasions! And yes, on some topics I had to stretch because you try to bring up points but with no information to back them up. And yes I have used sarcasm, but don’t think you are remembering the right post or not. I say something about sarcasm, you think of a post where I had to stretch. I talk about stretching and you think of a post where I used sarcasm. Looks like someone is bouncing!!! 2. Looks like you are trying to stretch on that one. You’re not very good at it! 3. Once again, it really touches my heart that you go back a year looking it my old post. It brings a tear to my eye. But once again, what’s your point? I talked about the Taco coming off the carrier and you got your panties all in a bunch because I left out that part of the story on another post. Next time I tell a story I’ll be sure to tell everything. What I had to eat that day, what clothes I was wearing and when the last time I laid a deuce! 4. The only thing I have claimed was that my filter had not leaked any oil past my air box and there where no noticeable dirt that was not being trapped. I never said, “The K&N is perfect for my engine.” Do you have proof that I said that? Of course not! Because everything you come up with you never have any proof to back it up. Which takes us back to the original claim. 5. Gay 6. I’m not talking about that claim. I have never said anything about that. This all started when you said that K&N is a dishonest company since they are LIARS! When they claim HP increases on the box. I ask for your proof, but you show none. You always change the subject. We already know what you are going to say. “I don’t have to prove anything, K&N does…..blah blah blah.” But there is not a K&N representative on here. You are on here with a claim but you have no proof. The other people that have had claims, good or bad, also showed us proof. You are the only one with a claim that has no proof. Everyone else gave us real world examples. But when it comes to your “K&N is dishonest claim,” you have yet to show proof. But lets see how you evaded it this time…….. p.s. I’m sorry I left you hanging the past day. The weather here is about 30 degrees cooler than what it has been so I been on the golf course the past couple of days. So now this will give you something to do in between taking orders at the Jack in the Box drive thru! (p.s. that was sarcasm) |

Hello, fanboi.
Can't imagine that this all started, again (nearly a year later, LOL), with the Avalon quick-fix (computer analysis, MAF cleaning, Wix filter and 2 test drives...wow, a whopping $90.00 charge), but you chose to tippy-foot and tail-tuck away from the guy that claimed "hundreds" of motorcycle engines were damaged due to the use of K&N filters. Like the guy said before, this isn't about filters anymore, and comparing your reactions to a $90.00 claim vs thousands of $$$ for the hundreds of motorcycles being damaged, it's easy to see that it never was. Everything that's happened since is probably just an old wound that never quite healed. btw, Just 1 more day and I'll get that $200.00, bouncer!! Quote:

Last night I actually saw a TV ad for K&N air filters, on the Discovery Channel!

Last TV ad I saw was several years ago...2 brothers each had a K&N, one drove a ricey car, one drove a truck--they were arguing with each other!

With that little evasion of yours, I just earned $200.00...what a nice way to start the day, bouncing fanboi.
"LOL my ass off!!" btw, on that "K&N Power Gain Search by Vehicle" link that you provided... http://www.knfilters.com/search/hp_search.aspx ...under our Yaris P/N --NOTHING. No power gain at all, it seems. And why did they list the oil filter on the power gain link? Oh yeah, I forgot, it says "performance" on the box. Funny thing, when you click the Yaris P/N from that link... http://www.knfilters.com/search/prod...x?Prod=33-2360 ...and it says that the "replacement" filter is designed to INCREASE horsepower! Really? Previous link doesn't back up that claim, for some reason. Still no proof, K&N? Thanks!! |

There's nothing you can do with it. The K&N link you provided shows no gain, advance 1 page to the K&N link I provided and they claim increased HP for the exact same P/N...they need to get their little claims in synch, it seems.
