damn noobs ow many times do i have to type this out. k&n filters are only desighned to stop dirt particles 10 microns and up, particles smaller than 10 microns wont damage a full scale engine but will toast an rc engine. so dont be a tard and buy a k&n get a motorsaver

dont bother their crap and useless there not even for rc

;) yes they are, they are for 1:5 big scale, i have one on my monster beetle, much better than the stock foam one, and adds some performance

Prove it, i asked k&n my self they admit they dont do one for rc, they are made for little petrol lawn mowers. although they do fit, there probally ok on you 1/5th scale but any thing smaller and your talking damage

the 5th scale one is quite a bit differen't to the small ones.

5th scale one is like an oil resoivour (sp) like the little ones but its got a big chunky bit of foam around it whichw ill stop dust getting in.

unless your running offroad/dirty area then i can't see how enough dust will get into the engine to damage it.

the K&N's for 5th scale do not have foam round them :D look

the reason you can use K&N's for big scale is because they are proper motorbike filters, but the nitro engine K&N's are crankase breathers for 1:1 cars, which are not exposed to dust and dirt as much, so i hope i have summed this up, and no more arguing :o

Thanks
