duspeed and vcm are both popular with tuning shops because they are both ADR compliant, therefore legal. they both have the filter encased within the housing that's why they"re legal.as we all know- exposed filters on late models are illegal pod filters, your orrsom( read the disclaimer at the bottom of their page). both offer excellent flow rates, the vcm in particular was computer designed as was most probably the duspeed as well. The d/speed is easier to clean as the filter can be pulled out thru a removable cover along the top. but I personally prefer the vcm. depending on your driving conditions you should get about 5000km between cleaning but you be the judge of that. When you re- oil it there is no need to oil both sides, only oil the exposed side. A good rule of thumb is only put enough on so it has a uniform coat of the red dye. No need to saturate it either eg: hold it up to the sun so there's just enough on the filter to dull the light thru it. Make sure you get a k&n cleaning kit too. About $25-30
