OEM cold intake?

when I bought my truck an 06 king ranch, it had a k&n intake with the reusable open type filter. I have read that the oem was/is a very good filter. I'm wondering if I should go back to oem? I see them going for cheap on Craig's list. I have an sct tuner and straight exhaust. What is everyone's thoughts?

thanks

Gilbert

Go back to stock, best set up unless you plan on running 500 plus HP and like cleaning and oiling filters.

Mine had the K&N too when I got it and I couldn't get it out quick enough based on negative things I heard about it. Found an OEM replacement on eBay for a great price and put in a new filter.
