I would go with a different alternative if i was you.. Try a non oiled cleanable filter.. I have a 2790 and they get dirty 2 quick and are very expensive to replace.

I second that...why have a throw away filter?

AFE ProDry S
AEM Workhorse
AEM DryFlow

are all good filters that you can wash and reuse.

Some people dont like the fact that ist an oiled filter - most of the problems come from improper service. Myself, I prefer something other than K&N.
