    Here’s a 200x comparison of the filter element under the microscope.

    just looking at the pictures, i would expect more filtering ability with the one on the right.
    so, how is it, sir? in your opinion, does the one on the right significantly restrict air flow?

    For cabin filters I would't mind what filter, but i prefer the cheapest and less restrictive since a car will always be dusty inside and out. Just replace it frequently if the accumulated dust/soil already discolored the element. Those hepa filters are more suited indoors, anyway our nose are already built-in cilia there's no need for much filtration, the filters are there just to prolong the life of the evap.

    Haven’t used the filter yet. I have yet to hit my first 20k on our current ride and the current filter is still ok. Just stocking on consumables as of now.
