Steve et all

I will once again share my finding on the K&N filter. I had one on my car 
while I still ran the stock air box, with RAIS(ram air intake system) of course. 
When Dave Jones pulled that out to mount the PBMAF mit Ford SVT Snorkel box we 
noticed the leading edge of the inducer had been damaged with lots of little 
pit marks. It was from the left over bits that the K&N didn't filter out. I 
ended up taking the turbo to TEC for a rebuild. There is also the possibility of 
damaging the hot coil from too much oil when you clean/service the filter.

Hap, no longer usin K&N but FORD stock filters in Evahboost, Maguire
