Default drop in filter reviews?

Ok so I searched SL and I googled my question but neither had an answer. So I was wondering if anyone has had experience with the TRD, K&N and Amsoil drop in filters? I really like the design of the amsoil filter they say provides better protection and breaths easier then K&N plus its nanofiber which means no oil to confuse the MAF. But has anyone actually used more then one of these filters so i can get an actual comparrison? I am NOT looking for HP gains just better throttle response/easier breathing and NO intake's because I dont want to "waste" $$ on a FWD car. I'm thinking that K&N and TRD will be about the same due to similar design but i'm really interested in the Amsoil. Anyways thanks for looking and any info

I have the K&N drop in. It works great. It actually drops like 1-2 HP to only gain on touqe (sp). I remember reading a review on here sometime ago.. If I find it I'll post it. If you do go on ahead and buy it make sure to jam that sucka in there because its tough to fit in the little box. also, it makes the car sound a LITTLE louder and lets more air in. Thats it. Like my buddy asks me at work.. Your not going to race it right? then just go nice on it.
