I like it so far. I like it better with the newer 8-ply than the original 4-ply. I've had the engine apart and didn't notice any dusting problems or the like that everyone talks about these oiled filters having. How long have you had yours? How do you like it?
I got mine last July and I like it. I had a little problem with the fit but the idea is sound especially with the recaled MAF sensor. I also did the ZOODAD mod and loved it this winter when that 20°F to 25°F air was going directly to the intake. That makes extra power. The oiled cotton filters are fine. I live on a 1 mile gravel road and have used K&N filters in everything for years. I, like you, watch for dusting at the inlet and have not seen any. Since our JOBEs are at the very front of the truck the only dust you would get is if you follow someone down a dusty road and that is just not done every day. The only problem I have noticed is a slight drone when I'm under load and that, I believe, is caused by the the intake box resonating. That is a pretty throaty air gulp sound that intake makes when it wants air. No comparison to the OEM airbox. I'm going to get some 1/2" refrigeration black insulating foam and line the inside of the inatke box to see if the drone goes away. Thanks for the feedback!
