are all paper filter the same? I have the ram air on my TA with th baffles removed and funnel type metal installed to direct it to the airfilter, so it gets pretty dirty real fast. I don't like the washable kind, since all that oil gets on the MAF, so I would like to run the cheapest paper filter on the street and have a nice flowing one I can switch out for the track-just to make sure its nice and clean and flows well compared to the daily driven one. Is there really a difference with filters? Should i just buy the cheapest ones and just replace them often?
I measured several and the Purolator paper one was
slightly better than FRAM for pressure drop, and a
bit worse than the Donaldson paper filter that came
with the Blackwing lid. All of the paper filters including
the OEM filter are indeed about the same (+/- a nit).
