I did a search and didn't find any threads on this topic. I picked up a K&N performance gold oil filter hp-1008 today, and it was completely different than the previous K&N filter I had on my evo. Has anyone one else noticed this? It seems that possibly another manufacturer is making the K&N filter now??
