[QUOTE="Ruger, post: 48453, member: 1594"] I bought PN 401-272 which has the non-oiled, completely synthentic SynthaMax filter. MSPR on the AIRAID site is $349.99. I paid $288.99 (free shipping) with Performance4Trucks. The oiled filter is called SynthaFlow. It is apparently a cotton gauze filter with a layer of synthetic fiber added. The PN for the Raptor 6.2L kit with the oiled SynthaFlow filter is 400-272 and runs about $10 less than the kit with the non-oiled SynthaMax filter. If you study the AIRAID web site you will learn that a clean SynthaFlow filter flows more air than a clean SynthaMax filter, but that SynthaFlow filters lose more flow rate as they get dirty. Via independent means I discovered that both filters far exceed the maximum airflow requirements of a 6.2L engine - even when they're dirty. I opted for the non-oiled filter because they're less troublesome to maintain (you just spray them with Simple Green or Formula 409, rinse in clear water, let them air dry, and then reinstall them) and because they won't gum up your airflow sensor.
