Lifetime air filter

[Xulfiqar]

What's your opinion on the 'drop in' filters (the rectangular shape) ?

same situation as cone, the filter media has giant holes in it compared to the factory filter.

k&n filters and other oiled filters are known to damage cars with MAF sensors because all the oil and dirt penetrates through the filter and gets onto the delicate coils of the MAF sensor which later shorten the life/damage the MAF sensor causing it to malfunction!

Lets take an example here.

volkswagen made the bugatti veyron, at full engine power it sucks more air than 4 toyo 2JZ engines combined, I wonder why they did not simply call KN filters to supply them.

similarly the AMG section of MB still use MB factory filters, Same with Brabus, some Brabus models pull stupid amounts of power - Not one is specified KN filters from the factory - I wonder why that is?

Well first, apologize for not replying quick!

And to answer your question.. you see every car manufacturer prefers using the company oil and air filters and they are mad expensive as hell! But, K&N is in category of OEM... people usually use it for to get good performance and economical price!
