Air filter reccomendation, 13 Cascadia? - SquareOne - 03-10-2019
Does anyone have a preference in a intake air filter element for the 2013 Cascadia with a Cummins. I have the PowerCore set up , but when looking to replace the new element (part#P610260), the reviews I saw weren't that great.
Has anyone tried or had any solid data on other filters? Flow or filtration?
Thanks in advance!

Put a thick layer of grease into your intake pipe just past the air filter, then check it in a month to see how much dust is getting past the filter. Then do the same for the "after-market" filter. - Most report they will not be using those washable/after-market filters any more after seeing the difference.
A poor filtration on the air filter will polish out liners, eventually cause high oil consumption, and and inevitable inframe.
As far as "fuel mileage gains" -- That is nothing but absolute false hope, marketed garbage for the dipsh$it masses.

Already have the grease in place ....that is a for sure way of seeing what's coming through. Good idea. I will most likely replace it with the same filter currently there.
