You can't see it. There are places you can mail your oil to to get it analyzed. Without a doubt your oil will be dirtier with a high flow filter then a paper filter. Just being techinical.

I am not trying to rain on anyones parade. It is just my belief that a CAI installation on a "stock" vehicle is a waste of money and technically does more harm then good.

I looked at the Weapon-R website and they state that the "secretweaponpreformance.com" site listed in the first post is not a participating supplier of their products.

If you are interested in buying one of these I would start with the source.

So, you've had it for over six months, any adverse effects or anything?

I think you mean a cheap intake/filter on any motor not just an aftermarket intake/filter on a stock motor. I've rebuilt a "stock" motor for an old daily driver of mine many years ago. 305 cubic inch chevy. Stock bottom end, stock heads, mild cam, stock intake, aftermarket carb, and a performance air filter. Regular oil changes, and regularly cleaned and oiled the air filter per manufacturers recommendations. After 65,x.. miles the cars frame rotted out and I pulled the motor and trans. to stick in a different vehicle. Decided a sprucing up of the motor was in order. Pulled it apart and it was as clean and pretty as the day I assembled it.

Is the breather hose kinked? If it is you need a longer hose to get rid of the kink.

with that same filter and intake i pulled it off after only 5k of on road driving. I ran my finger across the istide of the tube and you could see dust coating the inside! upgraded to a k&n universal filter with same setup and had no problem at all. It would be a good idea ESPECIALLY if you drive off-road.
