It's probably much better since it is a dry filter (no oil on the MAF). But as far as filtration who knows since it has likely never been tested interdependently.

Just install a good OEM style WIX filter, there is no reason to run anything different.

RX8 dies on idle. Can this be caused by a dirty air box, filter, intake?
