FILTER OPINION?!!! Greddy vs K&N

I am look in to buy a filter. I have K&N drop in filter currently, and it's over due for change. I think I ran more than 15,000 miles. Anyway, I am comparing Greddy's Airinx II and K&N Drop in filter.
I heard that Greddy's filter won't filter as well as K&N's.. is this true?
Anyone used both of them?
Any opinion will be great!!

Why are you worried about it? You can just clean your K&N theres no reason that you'd need a Greddy filter. If there is a difference, I'm sure it's marginal. Save your money, or instead upgrade your plenum with a spacer or something. There's a GB going on right now on some plenum spacers anyway!

Total waste of time and $$$!!!! Keep the K&N, if that's what you want... Either or (K&N or Greddy), you're not getting anything you'll feel, so don't loose sleep over it.

K&N's flow good, better than anything OEM, but in actuality the K&N "marketing sceme" is more for hype than anything tangiable. Even their Dyno charts and cliams of HP increase (readings at redline, I mean come on, who drives their cars at redline for more than a second if that?) is hyped.... The Greddy won't be any better...

Wash out your K&N, re-oil it, and slap it back in. It's good for nothing more than an extra line on your mod list...

The K&N "million mile" filter you have just needs to be cleaned with a recharger kit and carefully re-oiled.
