~~~~~~~` And therein lies the problem. More unfiltered air due to less air
restriction passage design. Paper gets the REAL fine stuff that gets into your
cylinder walls and wreaks havoc. You can't have MORE airflow without LESS
restriction,which leads to MORE DIRT getting inside. Bummer. Engines are too
expensive to rebuild over possible damage by a foam/oil filter, IMO.
