I would not use one. The point of an air filter is to filter the air from small (or even large) foreign bodies. They may say they "breathe easier", but if you consider the overall size of the filter and compare it to the air intake tube, it is usually MUCH larger. This is because the filter has a larger surface area than the area of the circle of the intake. So it breathes from a "larger area" to a smaller area, and the "breath" is filtered. Hence it should go pretty unrestrained once into the intake.
The K&N stuff I don't want to debate about, but I'd agree with the post above about "snake oil".
However if you are looking at more MPG's, there is an oil called "Marvel Mystery Oil", that often people look at and think is snake oil. I can give actual testimonial of my own that it increases MPG's in both my home vehicles, my children's go-karts, my lawn equipment runs longer, My Class C (pictured below) gets better MPG, and my class A bounder gets better MPG when using that stuff. A bit in the oil and fuel. For Diesels read up on their site about the use. Really it's a high detergent with a kick.
