Default RE: air filters

I guess you guys running K&N have heard the horror stories of the filter media (cotton gauze)being sucked into the engine? All of the "oiled" filter are capable of having this happen, but I have heard of it happeningmostly with K&N. This isnt happening much on stock engines, and mostly on FI vehicles that are really pulling in air. Pretty much all the diesal guys that I know personally, and on different forums have pulled their K&N filters and threw them away and are using dryflow (foam) filters or paper filters. At the moment im currently using 2 fram air hog filters, and will be ditching them for AEM dry flow filters when I get done with my engine work here in a few weeks.
