Hey all,

What do you think of the "high flow" air intakes?

Do you have to oil these? Or are they a dry filter?

Wouldn't mind getting one but don't like the idea of oiling an air filter. I think it would foul the MAF meter over time.

K&N are an oil filter and will need to be re-oiled when cleaned , if you are worried about the MAF you can get electrical contact cleaner from Dick smiths electronics, it is safe to clean the MAF with.

Normally i'm very good at feeling things through the car, and when I had my VZ alloytec and dropped in a K&N panel filter, nothing changed. As mentioned, it's only good in the long-run as to avoid purchasing paper ones. But considering its $67 and a paper one is $15, you will only break even after you would have replaced the filter after 4.5times.
