My K & N didn't let large enough debri through to mess up the internals of the engine BUT it did let enough oil and debri through to ruin my MAF.

Hense, I dont use the oil...I washed it out prior to installing it. I did have my MAF mess up on me once but it was before the K&N, it had 93k miles on it so i say it was due to malfunction. The new K&N without oil and New MAF seem to work beautifully together.
