If you have any of that data you mentioned handy, I'd be interested to see it.

You gave me the AEM sales pitch and I responded with an interesting table they used to have on their website that points to an alternate conclusion -- at least with less than 120 grams of dirt packed on the filter.

Again, that graph did not come from K&N -- it came from AEM. If it's inaccurate, blame them, but it clearly shows that their filter media is superior in flow only with 120 grams or more dirt packed on.
here are a few, some good reads simply examples of dry out performing K&N oiled...since K&N is pretty much the pinnacle of oiled filters. There Sooo many companies coming out with thier own dry filters that are beating K&N left and right...oil is gonna be phased out soon...its just old school
