based on the threads ive read here on club202 some people say the k&n messes up MAF others say it works fine. there are debates on this, but whats the final verdict on this issue?

also, should i buy a k&n or try to make my own CAI out of various parts. also i dont care about emissions as long as the car goes faster or sounds better. is there anyway i can raise my emissions and thus raise hp, personally idont care about the gas mielage or emissions tests. also some posts i read on this CAI are old, so now realistcally what pieces would i need for c280 1995 to build a working CAI. where can i buy them?

thanks,
Benz Newbie
