Default Vortex Owners: Air Filter Cleaning--Pls. Help!

I am thinking about buying a Vortex, but I have a few questions about how all of the other Vortex owners clean and maintain the air filters in their Vortexes.

1. Does the filter come pre-oiled? (I am assuming it is a reuseable-style filter)

2. Do you use the BPP cleaning kit or can you just use K&N oil?

3. If you use the BPP kit, how much did you pay for it and where did you get yours?

4. How many miles do you go between cleanings?

5. How do you know if your air filter is "too dirty?"

Thanks for the help!

Good luck. Definitely worth the price of admission.
