Excuse me. I don't want to be a negative or downer on this.
I ran K&N on several engines. When it came to Mass Air Flow and others t was easier to see but you could see it all of them, dusting. Especially not a good thing on blow or turbo motors where huge amounts, of air, are ingested.
How K&N flows more air is bigger holes in the media. The oil attracts dust and makes the filter cleanable but it still has big old holes for air to pass through.
What I did on most carbeurated engines was a big old 14 in air cleaner, with two huge Olds Toranado ,air filters. The paper elements got wet when the air was dam and didn't last as long but it made for one great bi air filter with smaller holes than the K&N. They make them now out of a polymer or polymer paper now though.
