Dryflow

There's a reason new products come out

They don't replace them with shittier stuff.

I think aem's reasoning for the non-oiled filters was for the problem a lot of the consumers were having clogged map sensor issues.

same thing with mine... intake is waaay loude and my throttle response was improved. im just guessing it is how it is built... less noise means less flow in my mind.
