All very interesting if ya gonna drive accross the Simpson desert to work every day. If you stay on the tar roads you could get away with no filter at all. all a little irrelavent for road cars.

To be honest you could get away with a Dry K&N on the streets.
It doesnt matter what the K&N Flows i run a Finer Filter and have for the last 11 years with no problems at all.

Oops! I'm the one that should have read the FINE print better! (Crawls away to hide under a rock somewhere...) :
