I still have no idea what the material is - paper, cotton, foam... Is this definitely going to filter better than a K&N?
Also, what are the flow properties of these filters? Are any good up to 400hp?

Take a look at https://www.amsoil.com/storefront/eaau.aspx
Thanks for posting all the links guys!

I would say there is little doubt the "nano" fiber media does a better job of filtering than oil wet cotton gauze.

Well, I'm due to clean the filter on my K&N FIPK. I was going to buy a replacement RF-1045, so that I would have two filters for the FIPK. Now, I think I'm going to order an Amsoil EaAU3590, as long as it will fit. It's a bit bigger than K&N's RF-1045. It's also quite a bit more expensive. Gotta hate that.
Is it really more expensive. In the long run, NO. You only need one filter, and no cleaning and oiling products. You can simply take it off and vacuum it, or blow it our with low compressed air. No waiting for it to dry or having a second filter to install while drying.
Any updates or results on the new EaAU filters?
Well, I have just ordered one for my 4.7l Durango. I will install it as soon as I get it. I have the perferred customer rating. I will let you know how much I like it.
Well, I have had it on now for 2+ weeks. It took the place of the cone filter that came on my CAI. It has no "holes" in it like the K&N type filter I had earlier. The truck is a tiny bit quiter so I take that to be due to the lack of holes. Truck feels great still. I will clean it after around 30,000 miles.
I have a K&N conical filter 4x9 inches. I would like to get the new Amsoil conical but are these in stock ready to ship out?
98, if you have the K&N part number I think you can cross reference at http://www.amsoil.com/amsoillookups/MasterFilterCrossRef.aspx or use this chart:

My only concern is will I lose power compared to the K&N conical?
No. The EaAU filter will supply more air than the engine will demand. See page 2 at https://www.amsoil.com/lit/databulletins/g2241_rev10_06.pdf . Amsoil would not be selling these cold air intake filters if they would rob an engine of power. They will also filter smaller particles, breathe better when dirty, and hold more dirt than the K&N. Plus the Amsoil filter can be cleaned much quicker by vacuming or blowing clean whereas the K&N requires removal, washing, drying, and oiling. I see no advantage in K&N unless you prefer a red filter over blue.
What's K&N going to do when everyone finds out about the Eaa filter?
I thought I had read K&N was going to a similar technology.
Look how long it took synthetics to become popular, and they are still a small share of the market. It will take a long time to overtake K&N. I'll bet their R&D department is pretty busy these days!
Interesting graph however the flow requirements of a stock 5.0 Liter Mustang at 3000rpm and a 4.6 DOHC at 7000RPM is quite different.
Dyno with and without the air filter and let us know if there is a difference.
