K&N vs FRAM Air filters

It's about time for me to buy a new air filter for my 95 3.0. I went to the local auto parts store and narrowed it down to the K&N Air filter and the new fram air hog. judgeing from the forums, K&N seems pretty well-recieved, should I just forget the Fram and just go for the K&N?

Yeah, i would, some people think they dont do a thing performance wise, others think they do. Even so, they last much longer than paper filters, and all you have to do is clean them and re-oil them, you dont have to throw them away.

The ongoing debate regarding the benefits (or lack thereof) of oiled air filters is currently going on the Oil & Lube Forum:
