I use the A'PEXi power funnel cone intake with 2.5" ID piping to my stock AFM. It's not as good at filtering as an OEM paper (and nothing is, really) but it doesn't have the same long-term ill effects that my wet-type K&N gave me on other cars. They're 100 bucks per filter, so you might want to rob a few dealerships before buying one.

Using a wet-style filter will still have negative effects throughout the rest of the intake system, throttle body (butterfly movement) and so on. Anywhere there is cyclonic air movement in the intake system is a potential problem for moisture (especially oil particles from the filter) to sit and build. Sure, it won't happen for quite a while, but still, why even use one when it creates long-term problems?

Yes, I believe I still have the stock Greddy thing, or at least something in the same U-bend shape. I wonder if keeping the filter up near the master cylinder would help if you could get fresh air from the cowl area?
