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.
K&N filters are a little pricey, but We still only recommend OEM and its good to know that the OEM filters are designed properly!
