Thank you for the info! Would that be the oiled K&N filter?
And yes, it is very helpful! Ive read far too many forum posts and websites on the subject, but hearing about the high air-flow filters also causing future issues with letting in more dust etc is a bit concerning. I guess the oil would help trap some of those, but then the risk of over-oiling could cause issues with the MAF too. It's all very convoluted and there is really only personal choice in the end. Having another driver's experience (or multiple in this case) is very insightful on what works and what doesnt.
The dyno runs on the cars is a bit over my head in most aspects, and seeing the minimal gains doesnt really say much for the performance when actually driving it. Hearig that it "feels" improved is a good enough judgement for me.
I do also appreciate your sincerity in answering the question(s). The search bar doesn't work on my phone browsers, and finding this thread was the most relative I could with the advanced search. It seems finding specific items here isn't an easy task haha. Thanks again!
