Legitimate question: How much extra dirt?

How long would you say it takes for your airbox to see a pound of dirt? Miles or time - your choice.

How big (volume) is a pound of dirt? How about 6.6 grams (the difference between the thread-subject-chosen K&N and the best-in-test AC Delco)?

Would you eat 6.6 grams of dirt for a dollar? How about over the course of a year?

Don't let percentages and bench tests that don't reflect real world situations scare you; look at real, raw numbers before declaring that the end is nigh.
