Default K&N Panel Filter

Are these ok to use?
I believe early examples had an oil issue which created maf problems.
Going on an MY03 STI PPP.

Filter or inlet manifold in dishwasher,
Lights in oven.

LOL, nice one Gaz.

Andy F also confirmed to me that Green/K & N panel filters were ok in the Newages as the housing had been redesigned, preventing the MAF from being damaged.

Only trouble with the STi filter is that you throw it away when it gets dirty!
