Default Fram AirHog™ Hi-Performance Air Filter

Is anyone firmiliar with these reusable air filters? Are they up to the same standards as K&N filters performance and quality wise?
I was thinking of cutting & modifying a K&N but the Fram seems like a direct replacement. Might be the only aftermarket filter being made for the GXP.

Read Scott Cook'* (badSSEi) topic a couple above this for the correct K&N part number.

Yes, but how weird is it when the K&N has the same dimensions of the OEM filter but they refuse to recommend it for the GXP, yet they will for the Deville. At least Fram says their filter will protect the Bonne engine.
