Default Air Filter

Are the RB Innovations High Performance Filter any good? Do you still have to put filter oil for those?

Paper filters let in more air than a foam, but they also tend to let dirt / dust in, so I avoid them. You would be better off with something like a Motor Saver filter, unless you are just going for the bling factor.

Holy christ....people are getting raped of their money. All that it is, is a vavle cover vent for real cars which is about 9 bucks if that and 12 inches of larger fuel tubing. Besides all that, its just going to kill your engine faster like MrN8 said

I would recommend that you stay with the foam filters. HPI high performance have always been good foam ones for me.

Sheesh, $32 for a filter!?.. and one that's not all that great on top of it!? [X(] lol..

HPI motor savers is are way to go IMO... the style linked is ok/good for on-road applications only IMO, I ran a K&N on my Jato, which was used 90% on-road...
