Kwik Filter MOD

I have searched the topic on Kwik Filter mod and read most of the post on it. Here is my question I live on a dirt road so dust is a major factor in this decision. My truck is a 99 f250 CC 7.3l 6spd no mods, I only want to mod it with programming and filter possible exhaust later down the road. I read that some people experiance turbo problems when they switch to the KWIK filter. Am I safe to run this filter or should I just spend the cash and get a AIS system?

In real dusty conditions, I'd favor the AIS, as that's for what it's specifically designed.

The cost is greater, but so is the "insurance factor".

You shouldn't experience any turbo problems by installing the Kwik filter setup, but I do agree with Pop that the AIS is better suited for the really dusty conditions. I think the Kwik filter will do a fine job of filtering, but it will probably clog quicker than the AIS. I've checked the inside of my intake tubing sever times after I installed the Kwik filter and not once has any dirt or dust appeared on the inside of the tube.
