Does it come ready to drop, or needs to be oiled?
any proven advantages of a K&N air filter?
What he said^Higher flow than most stock air filters increasing hp in most cars and trucks by 5hp. Since the 6R has a high flow already (just not reusable) it won't increase hp.
Ok, so along the same lines of the thread... I have the cleaner and re-oiler spray already. ONCE I actually place it in the bike, I am good for about 24k miles again I would believe before I would need to wash it.Higher flow than most stock air filters increasing hp in most cars and trucks by 5hp.

Price wise about the same as the OEM, but can be re-used.any proven advantages of a K&N air filter?

How much work is washing these filters? what do you do exactly to "wash & clean them". I would believe that then to re-oil you just spray it down?
If you over oil them, yes (MAF), doesn't take a lot of oil the make a K&N filter filter.Ok, so along the same lines of the thread... I have the cleaner and re-oiler spray already.

Pending the work involved I might consider getting on for my Blazer. I purchased the purolator Premium ONE w/ oiled filter (supposedly the good 99% filtration one). I want good filtration on the blazer due to issues with the MASS AIRFLOW SENSOR getting dirty and giving me codes. Clean the MAFS and it goes away and great acceleration again. I have read though that the oiled filters can cause problems with the MAFS in vehicles. Anyone have any problems?
