ehh....one thing is price. K&N oil filters were a little pricey in comparison to others on the market. I understand paying for quality parts...and believe in it. But there are some products on the market where all you are doing is paying for a name.

Learn something new everyday...I did not know that both Mobil 1 and K&N filters were made by the same people. I use the Mobil 1 filter simply because that is what Chrysler recommended as an OEM replacement to years ago.

On my Z32's the K&N and Frams were often associated with lifter tick at start up since they (at one point in time) lacked the anti-drain back valves found in the OEM filters.
