Good read about air filters

Hi
I have found an article I read a while ago about air filter comparisons. Wanted to share it with you.
I just installed the K&N intake pipe only on my SS with out their filter. It works fine, has given me smoother acceleration and response.
Here it is:
K&N Air Filter Review - Debunking the Myths (and why OEM is better)
Thanks

Good read and pretty much what I thought. What filter are you using?

Some of the data you provided supports what Sleeper and I have been saying for a number of years.

But alas, nobody will listen. They will still get "tons" of HP from aftermarket air filters. And an oiled filter will keep your engine cleaner than a non oiled.

Good info....if only people will listen.
