I run the aFe dry flow in my car. I'm a big fan of their products.

Most run into problems with the K&N after washing and oiling. If you think you put too much oil on it, blow it out with compressed air or a shop vac then install it. You run less risk of oiling your MAF.

Replace "most" with "some" and i would agree with you.

But add on the hassle compared to just popping in a new paper filter (doesn't even have to be OEM), in order to chase non-existent gains
