Default Why are AFE filters "race only"

I have a comptech intake and am looking into getting a K&N syle air fliter and I found that AFE makes one that fits but it says they are not carb legal and are "race only." Does this mean they do not filter out dust, and dirt very well? I am confused.

for them to be "legal" they have to have them tested. that takes time and money, and they probably thought it was not worth it for a lower volume part like that.
