Want maximum power and save money, do not use any air filter. Sure got maximum air into combustion chamber.

this is my own understanding, correct me if i am wrong
modern engines are using MAP and no longer the conventional MAF sensors which are sensitive to dirts built-up....even a little amount of dust went in it will actually burn up in the combustion chamber....better to use good syn oil coz with performance filter our engine oil will turn black faster and blacker
now the question of the degree amount of dust or dirt passes thro....
human hair : 40-600 microns
milled flour : 1 - 100 microns
Larger particles - larger then 100 um
-terminal velocities > 0.5 m/s
-fall out quickly and high chance will be trapped by nylon/steel mesh filters
-includes hail, snow, insect debris, room dust, soot aggregates, coarse sand, gravel, and sea spray
I belive the greater hazard is due to over-oiling and not worrying tiny dust getting in coz most of the bigger particles such as road grit will not have a chance reaching the filter due to the funnel intake design
