Hi All,
I'm thinking of replacing the stock air box in my 07 LR3 with the 4.4 V8, with a round K&N high flow air filter. Basically, I would leave everything from the stock air box back (including the MAP sensor) in place and only replace the air box.
I've read through several posts here on whether this is a good idea, and on whether these Rover engines can handle the increased availability of air. I don't see anything definitive, and would like to ask for some input. It's my understanding that most modern automotive computers can handle additional air, and will regulate to the new conditions up to a point.
Can the stock computer handle the increased availability of air? Are there any other considerations to take into account?
Thanks!
