K&N, AEM, AirAid and Spectre are all made in the same factory.

Of different materials.

I ditched my K&N drop in after 20k miles. Back to paper now. Performs the same.

On a side note, why does it seem that people like AEM Dryflows, but hate K&N? Same principle,. minus the oil....I don't get it. My Accent showed less Si over 3 oci's when I had my K&N drop in...in my book, that's a good thing right? lol

Not the same principle, not the same method of filtering. Appearances aside, two totally different filters. Cotton gauze material that requires oil to filter vs. synthetic woven filter material.
