John,

If you read the entire thread, and particularly my last post, you might realize and understand that the poor city FE has nothing to do with the air filter or anything other than the control of the transmission, meaning the points at which it is programmed to shift. My car is 3 months old with less than 2000 miles on it. It never gets out of 3rd gear until it's over 45 mph.

Installing a different air filter won't help anything.
