AmsOil EA Air Filters

[Throckmorton]

Basically it looks like they use "nanofibers" in conjunction with cellulose fibers to trap more dust (more particulate dust specifically). This would seemingly inhibit airflow, but they might be using a larger area to compensate or it might not even be necessary depending on the application. I'm not sure why its able to be cleaned while a regular cellulose can't, my guess is that is marketing.

OP, why not just clean your current filter?

Regular cellulose is paper. Try washing paper

Edit: Oh wait.. this contains cellulose. WTF?

Edit: I need to read more carefully. You clean them by vacuuming not washing. I think the idea is that more dirt sits on the surface of these, while more gets trapped within the paper matrix of a regular filter

What car was this performed on? If it were an EFI car, the PCM would not be able to cope instantly to the change in airflow without a PCM reset most likely. Most EFI cars "learn" to compensate for airflow changes due to the eventual filter restriction.

Car in the sig, any how I did go any buy the new filter, but I am an idiot and forgot about the 2 feeds that only work when driving at speed. lol Any how clean Air Filter now

Haha, yeah, that's why I was confused that they claim cellulose isn't cleanable when this is cellulose with extra fibers (that I would think would be even worse to clean as it'd basically wipe them from the filter, but maybe not?).
