I've heard alot of people say that the K&N 77-Series High Flow Intake Kits decrease low end tourque. If this is true, what causes it to lose it on the low end? I was thinking about getting one for my truck. I heard you gain pretty good top end but i was wondering if anyone saw any decrease in low end, which is something I don't want to lose. Can someone help me out.

Well, if I lost any low end power with mine I didn't notice the loss. They do make the vehicle sound better when you get over about 3/4 throttle and add a bit of power from ~3000-shift point.
