Since K&N seems to be deemed hazardous, I'd like to hear some recommendations of better airboxes please!
You might want start a new thread on this or look it up in search so there is no thread hijack going on.
I have the 6637 from Clay at Riffraff and am pleased with it.

I just reread my post and it made me sound like a jerk, Sorry.
The factory enclosure is known to be leaky. If you look at the clips and where the lid and body of the enclosure come together on many of them, a clip or two is missing and/or the lid is warped. If you add that to the K&N drop in filter, it is a recipe for dust getting into the turbo inlet and into the engine. This is a very bad thing, your turbo fins will show signs of being sand blasted by dirt particles, and the dirt will get into the cylinders and score the walls causing low compression.

I'm hoping not, just the wheel. Already got a new wheel from Riffraff just waiten on me to put it in with fingers crossed. Going to put in a GTP38R along with T500 this summer just saving up for now.
That looks like an Air Raid, I believe. Either way, that SHOULD be fine if you keep up with the maintenance. Don't try that 1,000,000 miles, the dirtier it gets, the better it filters crap that K&N claims on their gasser filters.
