It's not news to me that a single layer oiled cloth filter doesn't filter as well as a 2mm thick paper filter, I never said they filtered better, I said they flowed freer.

If you did a 250k mile test in a lab, in a dust storm, then yeah, I think it'd show a big difference. Do you live in the desert? If you do, maybe paper filters are the way to go, seriously. If you don't, go with K&N and just check them for accumulation when you do your oil or whatever. |
