What would people recommend as a good air filter for the stock airbox? I currently have the K&N one (got it just to try it out), and since I've been reading about it, I've been somewhat leary about it's filtration capabilities and problems with oil getting everywhere... Not to mention I don't feel like cleaning it.

What would be the best dry replacable filter to use? The standard Nissan one? Napa? Beck Arnley?

I believe that AEM makes a dryflow drop-in filter

I'm not worried about short term issues; it's a longevity question for me...

I'll look into the AEM dryflow...

I wasn't even referring to the oil part...but I'll take independent testing over what K&N wants to market to you...

It depends on which version you purchased.
