I have had my K&N on for 25,000 miles with a cover on it.

I have not cleaned it and the turbo is clean and oil free.



Good Luck

When I put the new turbo housing on last weekend, I checked the rubber tube from the filter to the turbo. No dust or oil inside. My K&N is in the stock housing. I'm happy with it so far.

I have run a K&N for over 125,000 miles and have never found dust or oil in my intake system. In fact I've got 2 so that I can properly clean, dry and oil one while I continue to use the other. I also do an oil analysis at each change. My last analysis is as good as my first one. I have also "swiss cheesed" tha air box.

Happy trails

K&N cover??

Hey Oasis, what kind of cover do you have on your K&N?

Are you talking about the stock filter housing or are you talking about a prefilter? and, did you get it from K&N, about how much did it cost?? Thanks fellas

Bob, I'm curious, what does it cost to have an oil sample analyzed? Thanks, John

this afternoon. should be here tommorrow about 3:30. I can't

wait to get it on my truck! I'm going to see if they have a filter

It seems that everyone has had good luck with the K&N but me, and only a few other people. I am just letting you know that it is possible, even when servicing the filter properly, to get dust in the intake. I don't know how or why, but it apparently does happen. I am not trying to steer you away from it, merely informing. Best of luck.

The cost for an oil sample is usually $10-$15. I get mine done thru the oil company I get the oil from(Royal Purple) and it is $10 for the sample and the kit plus shipping cost. I don't remember what the postage was last time, I think around $3

Thanks, Stan. Sounds like cheap insurance.
