colder air is denser... meaning you get more oxygen into the same amount of space. more oxygen, the better the combustion.

Cleaning is so-so because I have to take the tube off at the turbo to get the filter out but other than that I haven't had any issues. Clean it like I used to do k&n filters and no issues except for the loooooong drying time after washing.
