Kind of Apples and Oranges, Nissan and Subaru, but IF the Subi MAF is nearly as sensitive, I could see it being the problem. I'd like to think it may have shown up sooner tho...

But Alex isn't seeing a MAF CEL, he's got a misfire. I'm more apt to blame the problem on the higher air-flow leaning out the car and messing up the plugs over 11k miles than to blame it on the element's oil.
The issue w/ the K&N element was more of an aside as to why I wouldn't re-install that particular intake, even if he were to get the car re-tuned for it.
