The K&N is for street legal use, ( not an off-road part or anything ) and does meet or beat all Ford specs.
That would be the Moss-Magnuson act.

The key is do they meet the Ford specs. If the Ford spec calls for a paper filter, there is no way for a K&N filter to meet the spec.

I'm still skeptical about K&N, they make some rather extravagant claims that remind me of the Monster Cable people. I also know that if the filter is not properly serviced (i.e. just the right amount of oil) you can end up with a big mess in your intake.
