Default Foam filters and their Cotton Gauze cousins...

I know many of you feel that foam filters are inferior in flow and filtering capabilities compared to the popular "K&N" cotton gauze filters. Considering K&N's long standing history, and good track record, I can understand why it is so easy for many of you to just automatically discount any other designs. I did a quick little experiment with a cotton gauze filter I had here, and one of our new Secret Weapon filters, just show the real differences here, and why we here at at Weapon*R, and a number of other companies (Comptech, True Flow, etc) feel that a foam filter is a better option. The experiment conducted here is in no way to be considered scientific, an independant test will be conducted in the near future for an accurate measurement of filtering capabilites. This is merely to just give everyone something to ponder when they make their filter choices.
