RamFX Performance air filters

Has anyone tried these? I've seen them on e-bay a few times advertised as a "better" than oem air filter that's reusable like a K&N. Say they are used on MB DTM Touring vehicles too...

I've used K&N products and have been pleased, but I'm unfamiliar with RamFX.

Any expereince on way or another with these??

Ramair filters

....I have a pair of the Ramairs for my CLK....The car has about 700 miles with them....Do I feel a difference: don't think so. The first day i put them on it seemed that it may have actually slowed me down a little....the car seems much faster now, but I can't tell you whether it is because I am use to it now or the car adapted somehow......it may even be that my car is now more broken in, there is a bit more growl now. I plan on taking my car to the Dyno in the next couple of weeks so I'll find out then. The only thing that I can tell you is that they are very gooey.

I also was enticed by their website...I figured if it was good enough for the CLK DTM cars, it's good enough for me.
