Not last time I checked As far as I know, the Amsoil air filter tested is the only one available for our cars.

Sure some tuning might level out the field a bit, but I'm not sure what else to say that hasn't been said already. I'm running the perrin now.

enough said, I'm canning my crappy Vibrant and going with the perrin... thanks!!! I'm for one appreciate your time and efforts

I've been checking my MAF periodically since switching from the Vibrant to the Perrin and so far its stayed perfectly clean unlike when using the Vibrant filter. Both the Perrin and Amsoil filters are very good; both should keep the MAF clean and happy, the biggest difference will be the tiny particles let into the engine. Each filter has its pros and cons.

Well considering the Perring REQUIRES a good amount of oil to filter out the dust & particles I think the Amsoil would be the better option over all. It should be easier to maintain and filter better over the course of it's life.
