So a manufacturer states that it's products are good and safe? Amazing. Tobacco companies did the same thing for years. They even had Doctors endorse their products. It's called marketing. |

Every other data source I've found has oiled vs. dry within a percent or two in contaminant filtration. |

Does this work on the stock tune? MAF scaling the same, no codes etc?

In the grand scheme of things, how much more can an aluminum pipe possible cost them for them to look the other way on a potential engineering flaw. A simple experiment could be done with a can of soda vs a plastic bottle. Put both in the refrigerator and see with one gets the internal liquid cooler, quicker. Hint: The aluminum can wins every time over the plastic bottle; i.e. more "cold soak." #Science |

And again, the link you provided left out massive details in how the tests were performed, as well as didn't come to the same conclusions you were claiming it came to. |

The graphs seem very obvious to me as does their testing procedures. The testing was done by an independent group with no affiliation to any filter manufacturer. I would give that more weight than any manufacturers sponsored testing. Like I said previously, people can interpret things differently. When testing results are aligned with what I've seen and experienced over the years I tend to give them more weight. |

And looking at your post history, you aren't as knowledgeable as you lead people to believe. Asking if removing a leaf grate will increase air flow, not knowing the difference between a charge pipe and a boost pipe, asking how to remove the bumper, and not knowing how tunes and turbos work.

I'm not obsessed with you. What bothers me is you are spreading misinformation, and projecting yourself as an expert, which isn't fair to people reading this forum who don't do the research themselves, or the mfgs of products you are saying are harmful. Discussing anything privately doesn't help the matter. Do and believe what you want, just don't spread the nonsense to others then shut down and derail the convo when you're proven wrong or questioned about the validity of your claims.

You make it hard to drop a subject. I've not seen where I've been proven wrong nor stated any untruth. I stand by what I've said. I tried to take the high road and offered to take this to PM as not to pollute the thread anymore but you make it very difficult. Discussing things privately would certainly clean up the thread however at this point I see no need. |

Can you guys take your debate to PM please or start a new thread, our questions on the intake will get lost in the noise.

I had no intention of getting an intake, however I am going PS2 end of the month and figured why not? Just ordered, as it is a worthwhile addition for the added sound alone imo. Great pricing, thank you X-PH! I'm not interested in this debate, but I have been running K&N style filters on almost all of my cars and motorcycles for 20 years without a single issue. If oil is making its way into your MAF or anywhere past the filter for that matter, simply too much oil was applied. This is easy enough to check and remedy by removing the filter and checking the MAF and plumbing for oil residue and cleaning/re-oiling if necessary.

Can whoever gets this installed first post some pics? I'm interested but want to see how it looks using the stock airbox as a shroud first.
