A standard filter will offer the same performance - the beauty of some of the aftermarket units is washability and re-usability.
K&N are excellent in this respect and a superb product.
Dont expect any power gains, only noise, which some find pleasing.

Go by the feedback, I am not ware of any K&N rip offs doing the rounds mate - I have no qualms buying from a respected seller.
The manufacturer does a reasonably good job as it is. If you monitor the intake air temp with MES or even Torque, you can see that the actual difference is negligable - as in not recordable on a rolling road in most cases. But again, every little helps and some people like the indcution noise. Often 'performance' gains can be had by the actual audible feedback to the driver from the increased induction noise - the note and actual sound can assist gear change points by giving a better awareness of engine 'karma'
Damn..... So, you are saying that the gallon of Castrol R I poured into the airbox was too much ...People use too much oil, all you need is to spray on enough to turn the white red not leave it to soak in a tub of k&n oil over night lol
but the pipercross is what i first read up on when i bought the car and now hearing people dont like the sponge filters im abit cross minded what is the dissadvantages of a sponge filter ? And is the general rule they all work about the same its just down to preferencial taste?
