Apexi is a dry filter, K&N requires oil

the dealerships are claiming that the oil from the filter screws up the maf, this has been a major problem in later 5th gen models, most other people dont have the problem. I'd go with the apexi.

so how long can you use an apex-i filter for? does it require replacement after a certain amount of miles?
