I'm looking to replace the stock air filter in my OEM air box. On previous cars, I've stuck with "dry" air filters to prevent excessive oil build up on the MAF sensor and intake tract. As a result, I'm leaning towards the AFE Dry filter (LINK). They also have an oiled version (LINK).
It's been years since I've done any real research on air filters. However, I do recall AFE making a solid product. The oiled filter has an obvious potential downside but I have MAF cleaner and have no problem removing and cleaning the sensor at each 5k oil change. That said, I suppose my question is whether there is any real advantage to going with an oiled filter vs dry filter, on this car?
I'm open to thoughts/suggestions.
