Drop-In Filters For 3IS ???
Are there any drop-in air filters out there for 3IS yet? I just bought the Joe-Z pipe and want to get a little bit better quality filter in there.

The OEM filter is higher quality than the "high performance" filters such as K&N in terms of protecting your internals from dirt, etc. No reason to spend money on any other type of filter.

^^^ This. On my last car I had a Cobb AP so I could log Mass airflow in grams per second (g/s). I compared a K&N (oiled type) vs. AEM dryflow vs stock oem paper filter. The difference in flow from off idle through redline was nil between all three filters. Totally not worth straying from oem unless you feel you'll save money in the long run because the aftermarket filters are reusable.
