Beefy Air Filter ?

I hate to admit it but I have been running a K&N filter and after reading and re-reading the filter test http://www.duramax-diesel.com/spicer/index.htm I have finally decided to switch back.

I am wondering if anyone has used this Ford approaved Beefy Upgrade:

It is also not cheap. Most folks in FTE are running the less expensive 6637 filter, which is also much better than stock in terms of BOTH air flow end filtration efficiency.
