    Ralliart foam filter

    Anyone got one of these?

    It has 3 different foam types on it, so I am assuming that Its a dry filter. Im certian it didnt have oil on it when I got it, but better safe than sorry.

    Anyone got experiance with these filters?

    Avoid oil-coated air filters at all costs - you'll destroy the Air Flow Sensor.

    Thats what I thought, but then the air flow sensor isnt a hot wire sensor, so maybe its not such an issue. Something to do with light and vortexes (look up Karman Vortex on google)

    Though then again, it would make sense for ralliart to do a dry filter if that was the case... ah well, should be sweet.

    I bought the car with it already in. Probably put in by the same person/s who did the door trims and scuff plates.

    Sorry I couldn't have been of more use!
