I've been told the K&N drop ins are a popular mod but have also been told by respected tuners to leave the filters alone.

I was told not to use any after market air filter that requires oiling as they have a habit of messing up the Lamba probe.
dont no how true this is but over on the MB boards they recomend leaving the original alone.
