I have used K&N filters on my vehicles for 10 plus years. Never had any problems, the throttle body is never really dirty, nor the intake plenum. No increase in engine wear, no issues. I currently have one my truck which is just like the OP is asking about. No issues, no extra HP or Tq that I can tell. But what's nice is the fact that I don't buy filters, just wash and reuse per the instructions. Never over oil, ect. So to me the only advantage is what I had stated above.
