Air Filter
I have a Vararm B2 with the K&N 33-2522 filter mod. I have a buddy whom is telling me that a Filtrete Filter (the ones used in A/C Cooling ducts vents) would be better than my K&N. I disagree, but he's been running one in his car for a few months now with no problems. Has anyone other than him tried this?
These are the filters he use:

I thought it was a Filterete, but it's made by WEB.
Any advantages or disadvantages over the K&N?

I'm going to say that this is not a good idea...but I have no scientific data to support my opinion.

Lets just make it easy guys..........DONT TRY IT.
If you decide to do it, I will make sure I keep an eye out for your "Whats wrong with my motor" thread.
