If i didnt put a stock type paper one back on (Motorcraft, wix) I would try one of those AEM dryflows.

Whenever I get around to it I would actually like to get one to put on my AF1 intake...

interesting.when i spoke with afe directly-told me i'd see better dyno numbers with their dryflow vs the oiled unit as it flows more ,not that the dryflow doesn't filter good, but they stated it doesn't filter as well as their oiled gauze filtersalso i know it's two different worlds but when i had my oil in my 08 honda c4rf 450's analyzed -both with 1.5 hrs on them ,same k&n oil filters,same 10w40 amsoil synthetic mc oil,one with oiled twin air foam filter,one with afe oiless filter-dirt content in the afe was astoundingly higher-reason i dont use dryflow filters in my vehicles

If you are going to do an intake, just get a motorcraft or wix because the filter wont be able to be reused on the intake anyways...if you arent I'd go with the aem dryflow or k&n. Ive had k&n's on both my trucks, and my 4 wheeler, and I havent ever had a problem cleaning them 1x per year, just don't over oil.

When I have the money for it, S&B intake with VMP custom tune. Maybe next year. Cant afford both at the moment, and the bottom of my current filter is black so its time to put a new filter in.

Mine doesn't have Motorcraft filters, and no Fram for me.

Thats interesting. Amsoil is some good stuff. I actually got a replacement Motorcraft yesturday. I'll just keep buying them until I can afford my S&B kit.
