don't worry soo much about it man. You'll be ok. Nothing beats K& N filters IMO. You need oil to trap the dirt. By the way, I have a used one 4 sale hehe. $35 bucks shipped! I'll even clean it before I ship it. Used 2000 miles or so.

the oil issue usually affect those cars with hot wire type mass air, like toyota celica. Remember to keep your stock airbox and not go for those cone filter setup IMO. I wish I could still use my stock airbox. I have RMR IC piping that forces me to remove it. Bottom line, you will be fine with the drop in!

my k & N came pre oiled. they all should. the only reason that you have to re-oil is when you clean it with something that takes the oil off of it. i payed around $75 for mine i think, but cant remember for sure. it will make the stock BOV, and intake system a little louder but not much. good luck.
