Sorry bro, gotta put in my opposite opinion on this one.  I've actually run a 
K&N in a very dusty environment.  This summer I was in Oklahoma and ran down 
some of their "better" roads.  "Better" roads means these don't have potholes 
you can throw a cat into and lose it.  Anyway, dust was the king this summer, 
and I ran through a lot of it.  I cleaned out my K&N this fall.  Results: the 
top of the filter was black with dirt; below the filter had no dirt on it at 
all and my MAF sensor was working fine.  I was extremely impressed.
