I can't tell. Does the trueflow have a rubberized outer edge to give a good seal against the airbox? And, how much are these? Jason?

Yes they do have a rubber seal, the frame is a hard plastic

Yeah, re-oiling my amsoil filter is kind of a messy process.
I wondering...could i just buy the Trueflow(or Amsoil brand for that matter) spray can and use it on my older-style Amsoil air filter? I've already got it and don't really need a new air filter.

I have been hearing good things about these too. They have some videos on their website and I had seen some video of a test they did at a car show that seemed pretty impressive. http://www.realtruck.com/videos/trueflowvideos.php
Under the viewer scroll to the test results a click play.

I just ordered one from Jason B today. I like the idea of having a tighter fit in the box (don't go there). One of my complaints about the Amsoil filters from the beginnng is their loose fit; like they need to warm up to have a good seal. The TrueFlows look like they'll do a better job all around I.M.O.
Personal Plug: If you get one, order it from Jason B. If you've not dealt with him in the past, give him and Burtman Industries a try. His customer service is awesome and he really wants to get you what you need for your ride. He's gone out of his way to get me a couple of items in the past. And, he's one of our yotatech brothers!
