Is there really a difference? I cant tell the difference between a K&N and the cheap ebay one on my truck, especially when I use the K&N clean/recharge kit because then it looks just like a K&N. I bought it because it was $18 shipped and a paper replacement one is $12. ---

On a higher HP boosted car the difference is somewhat more noticeable. ---
