Default K&N filter on a turbo car?

Sup guys, tried searchin but couldn't find any info on this. I see alot of turbo set ups using foam and dryflow type filters. Will a turbo suck the oil from the K&N filter? If so, will that hurt it much or no big deal? thanks

No it will not suck in the oil. I use one with no issues.

FWIW, on the dyno I saw a 10whp gain in the midrange with it removed. You can feel it on the street.

I was thinking of taking off my Dryflow for the TUNE and using my 4" velocity stack, ridiculous idea?

No not at all...you'll just be down slightly on power when you go back to the filter on the street.

I just ordered a 4" Blox velocity stack I should be getting next week. I want to see if I can get a filter over it it some type of way.

I have the AEM dryflow 5.25" length filter and plan on running it on the dyno and then doing a dyno pull with it off to see if it is restricting any airflow. I would think it wouldnt change the numbers much but we will see.
