How we have a sub-forum (the oil filter one) where many, myself included, strive to find the most efficient filter for their vehicle, while, in the air filter forum we've got folks actively searching to fit some of the least efficient filters on the market to their vehicles, vehicles which are almost universally stock or close to, that won't benefit from any added airflow that might be available at the expense of efficiency.
Obviously excepting people like @TiGeo who live in non-dusty environments and have significantly increased their power over stock and are making an informed decision.
The general consensus is of course that the air filter is the most important one in the vehicle. It prevents abrasive material from entering the engine and causing damage throughout. Yet the pursuit of more efficient filtration (like the Volant systems, that leverage a Donaldson PowerCore, first introduced on here by @Quattro Pete ) is next to non-existent.
It's truly quite fascinating!
