     Reducing back pressure is an easy thing to do with obvious performance results. I had a 525 ISX in a 07 Executive ,  did the following changes to the intake and exhaust components. I replaced the OEM air cleaner with one from AFE, which had a washable filter element and more CFM capacity, same micron spec. Next i replaced ALL the pleated intake hose with rubber fittings and aluminum tubing from intakehoses.com. That's what truckers use. Got rid of all the air friction in the intake. Next was a resonator to replace the muffler from dynaflexproducts.com. Largest MFG. of class 8 truck exhaust components in the U S A. Did not like that so i went straight pipe. . Here is a picture of the results on a screen shot of my Aladdin system. Performance was great and my average CRUISING MPG went up. I cruised at 1350-1400 RPM, 61-62 MPH.   

    AFE, https://afepower.com/  is out of California. YOU have to CALL them to get a filter element quote. NOT a standard web site catalogue item.

    Also, just ordered a washable air cleaner from K&N the biggest one they said they had. I am also trying to find one for a boat are used to work on a couple boats. That we had to wash.

    On most of these coaches with larger engines the original filter is undersized.  This only matters under full throttle conditions.  Unless you do a lot of full throttle pulls, you might consider using your current filter a while longer.  Just make sure it's not getting wet or has excessive dust.  

    I think K&N makes some great products.  I have a friend that put over 130k miles on his coach with a K&N filter.  But, there are some folks that don't think they filter the fine particles. 

    Best of luck!

    Fuel mileage is terrible

    Something is not right there, you should not have that much restriction in 10’000 miles, I’d check the restriction gauge, when trucking for myself for over 20 years I would not have to change air filters at a million miles, according to the restriction gauge, but I did, fyi.

    It’s new c13 need over 1200 hundred CFM  that what it say for the motor been doing a lot of research lot of stuff out there c15 air cleaner try to find that part number

    I would not use a K&N filter on MY coach but that's entirely up to you.

    How many times have you reset the Air Vacuum Gauge? Once it gets to about 25-30 the FIRST time I always reset it . Then once it gets to 25-30 once again it's time to replace the air filter.

    Has you past 10K trips been on dusty or dirty roads at all? I stick to highways so that very same filter on my Windsor, P537448, would last a few years or more.

    Less than 10000 high way only
