I picked up a Aem dryflo drop in and at first i picked up a mile per gallon, after a couple tanks that seemed to drop off a bit, but still have an average gain of about .5 MPG. Its not much but i can clean it when i need to.

I got the K&N just so I can clean it and not buy another filter.

I'm getting the k&n filter soon, it's twice as much but it will pay for itself in the long run since you can clean it

Where did you get the AEM Dryflo drop-in? Do you have the part number? I'm not big on the oiled filters, but would like a good lifetime filter...

Do you have to run the K&N's oiled? Or can they be dry?
