[Z06] Airaid Z06 Intake Systems...at CCA

Just checked Airaid's website, and noticed that they have a oiled and non-oiled version. Does the non-oiled filter flow as well as the oiled? If so, the non-oiled would be best not to contaminate the MAF with oil.

Airaid does not have the flow info on the oiled filter on the web site.
The only way your MAF gets fouled is if the filter is over oiled. Not
really a function of the Intake, but more the person that over oiled
the filter.
Non oiled filters do not filter as well as oiled filters.
The non oiled filters are mostly used on FI cars. FI cars tend to
suck the oil right out of the filter.

The general rule is that oiled filters are less restrictive.
Let me put another way... For a street car, (basic Bolt on's) it does not
really matter. Both flow significantly more air than OEM. The difference
would not be noticeable.

Hey Chip, can you advise if the if the 2008 Z06 part # is the same for the 2011 Z06? I think it is 250-216? I took my filter off of my 2008 Z when I sold it and it was pretty new then. I just picked up a 2011 and wanted to put it on. Thanks Jim

Hi, does installing air intake void warranty ? say for example I install and right before servicing the car changed it back to stock will they know ? does it trigger any engine light? I have borla stinger if that helps
