Oh definitley -- foam filters offer terrible filtration and if they begin to degrade, you can draw foam particles into the motor
They do offer good flow, however, so for a track only car they might be worthwhile.
Also, interestingly enough, the K&N media offers superior filtration even to the excellent AEM dryflow filters -- at least until they are both PACKED with dirt. Then the AEM flows better -- solution: clean the K&N.
For a cone filter I'd only use K&N or the AEM dryflows, the latter winning out only because they're so easy to clean and no concern regarding overoiling/dirtying MAF sensors.
That said, if the sensor does get gunked:
