[urq] Since someone mentioned K&N air filters...as not a good choice...?

[quattrodude at comcast.net]

I was just wondering what was the deal on that, is it realy just good marketing. I did notice when i put mine in my car it did breath much better than the a few of the other various paper filters. I have checked the inside air tracks for dust and dirt and all seems to be pretty clean. 



But what other experiences are people having? I did notice an improvment on spool up with a K&N over a paper...but then I have had my K&N for years now. 



I do live in oregon so its more wet than dusty and dry (when I do drive it). 



Anyone have any other recomendations? 



Should i dare throw in K&N oil filters too?
