The way K&N filters are constructed WHAT?????? makes it higly likely that this happens.
We know the positive effect a WAI can have, especially in winter.
8% mpg gain does not sound unreasonable.
This is no miracle feat of K&N, just the effect of a WAI.
(wish this had jumped to mind earlier, things might have turned out differently.)
EDIT What the... I thought this was another thread! Sorry for breaking word. I'll dive under again.

"The way K&N filters are constructed....."
really......?????
the K&N filters mimic the stock design of the original filter, it's a drop in substitution.
maybe......what you are talking about is something different, like a CAI/WAI bolt-on product with a cone designed filter?
so yeah....off topic again.
