To add to tha above review/performance of the K&N panel.
As you will of read from the above the K&N didn't perform too well when compared to the OE paper filter.
Well, I thought I would give it another go so threw it back in over Christmas and clocked up a few more mile on it with a run up to the folks. It's probably done about 800 miles now, so it was time for a touch more logging.

The MAF g/s are now reading high 170's / low 180's (i.e 181). Whereas the OE paper filter is reading high 180's with the odd flicker to 191.
So after 800 miles I assume a bit of oil has been pulled through the K&N and freed up another 10 or so g/s. But the OE paper filter is still outperforming it.
The g/s BHP maths work this out to be about a 12BHP variance.
So the OE has gone back in, in preparation for an R-Tech remap in a month or so.
