well its easy, take off the filters and inspect the tubes and sensors

so far i havent seen any dirt in the tubes and the sensors are clean, i do need to inspect it again though, its been about 100 miles since my last inspection

you can't eyeball dirt in the tubes to figure out cleansing efficiency, especially after such little mileage, nor can you guess air flow resistance.
