[QUOTE="KAH 24, post: 1624402, member: 43659"] I live in TX where during the dry season the dust will tend to be rather powdery/fine vs. coarse. Coarse dust packs an air filter (imagine talcum powder) and the micron size (10 microns) My OEM did enough exhaustive testing of aftermarket air filters recently to shift me from an oiled to non-oiled filter. I am certain every manufacturer does similar. Ultimately cost has to win, even though I am a motorsports enthusiast. K&N(r) owns AEM(r) and both brands make great filters. One is not better/worse. Based on my analysis, I saw that for my desired fine dust filtration/airflow/maintenance needs the AEM is a better choice for me. NOTE: For ethical reasons I will not ever state that one filter is better than the other, but I prefer the dry filter as it is superior for reasons that are my own.
