People say that paper is better over oil. I have an airaid and getting a filter cover. I assume from searching that is about the best we can do with these styles of cold air intakes. Or can different types of filters be purchased?

I just went back to my stock setup. I have a afe stage 2 on and my filter minder was getting set to half even right after i cleaned it. I use very light oil.
anyhow now i am back on the stock system and there is a definant change the responds different and it has a ton more smoke on light accellation. so it changed the way the map sensor is working. my 2 cents...

I use a K&N in my truck and enjoy it. Everything else is stock.

Can the restriction from the stock air filter box handle the extra hp from programmers?
