[QUOTE="Jules, post: 182993, member: 88"] gets darker cos the cotton gauze filter letting in more impurities......which of course gets burned and more carbon being produced! yes, if you overoil I do think the AFM can be affected.....just imagine the oil flowing thru and coating it up and with the dust, they bugger up faster too. so the key is to oil the correct amount which is harder than it sounds.... anyhow I used K&N before on my older car with no significant improvement except the induction sound! and of course less no replacement $$$ of element.
