Saying that i might as well not use a filter is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. If i didnt have a K&N or any filter at all, Very large particles of dust and other debris would be allowed to get into the intake and heads. It really bugs me when i hear stuff like that. The proof that my filter catches small, fine dust is in the filter, When I clean it out, I see a variety of dust from very fine to large. While i know that its possible for some very very fine dust to get past the filter...Im confident that it would only be the very fine stuff that wouldnt have any effect on my engine.
If you want to refeut that, then introduce me to someone that used a K&N and a large debris got past the filter and caused major internal damage to the heads...If you cant, then i dont care what you have to say one the subject of Air Filters and risk of debris getting past them.

I'm crashin' this party too! But first... mic please.
BROTHERS! This message board can't afford another K&N Air Filter debate! We've lost too many members over this as it is! Don't you guys remember Ghostrider 310? He was one of us... no different than me or you... a happy Boxster driver, always contributing to the conversation... But he left due to K&N related violence. Then there was Srcappy81, BxstrLvr, and GRM-BXTR -he went so overboard that he ended up selling is car and buying an MR2! All these good people were victims of the Great 986 K&N Debate (code name G986KAN vs MNB)! Look, the K&N crimes have got to stop now. Let us rise up to the occasion! Let's put an end to global K&N confusion... Sure K&Ns have been known to let a few bricks pass through their pores. And we all already know that the HP gains from a filter are so massive that they have to be measured with a seismograph... but let us remember the golden rule... no politics (Long live W!), no religion (I love Jeebus!), and no air filters (never even seen mine)!

3 things not to talk about in polite company:
1) Religion
2) Politics
3) K&N Air filters
