Why do the part numbers differ on parts.com and oediscount?
oediscount part numbers are 1560940506 and 1560940606
vs
parts.com part numbers 1560940306 and 1560940406
should I not be concerned and order the ones from parts.com as they are cheaper?

I can confirm the part numbers ending in 306 and 406 from parts.com are row air boxes

My guess is that they 'belong' on different cars with the same motor - the 306 and 406 are coded as a "CLK63" while the 506 and 606 could be for a different car, but the same 63 family.

People don't know how to properly clean, oil and close the boxes with K&N. I and many others have had K&N and NEVER had an issue. A few people having issues doesn't mean there is a widespread problem.
K&N is well made and manufactured when examining comparable filters up close.

I will run them but its common in the Tuning industry to not use oil based filters on cars that use air flow meters.
I mean every tuner from kleemann to renntech uses a dry filter on our cars.

Completely unrelated, or maybe not. I used to run K&N oil filters in my race bikes for years. Till recently, when I started having oil pressure issues on more than one bike. I dug in, and most of the guys on the grid had moved away from K&N for manufacturing quality related issues like that in recent times. I jotted it down to a general decline in K&N quality and moved on.

I'm ordering up the ROW air boxes this week. I take it from parts.com they will come with everything needed?
Will I get errors in the computer? I have a V5 tune for the car now, but is there another tune specifically for the use of the ROW boxes? Thanks guys.

Few questions:
Are people are seeing 15-20rwhp gains from the ROW Boxes with AFE dry filters?
I'm assuming no tune is needed for a bone stock car (like me)?
Any negative side effects to doing the ROW boxes?
Lastly, would the stock filters fit the ROW boxes or AFE must be used?

I think Kriston has a thread with the ROW dyno results. 10whp maybe?
No tune needed
No negative effects whatsoever
Yes, you can use the OE paper filters or aFe or K&N or BMC or whatever - they all fit. I like the aFe Pro Dry S filters.
