Perhaps but, it isn't recomernded as the oil helps trap the smallest particles.

Oiling the filter (applying the correct amount) is not dificult at all.

The oil "problem" is simply a myth perpetuated by competing filter technology vendors.

As I said in another thread, Toyota offers a K&N type filter themselves so, they obviously have no problems with it. A TRD filter is made exactly like the K&N and may even be made by K&N.
