Rep Power: 0 5K is way overkill and will actually reduce the performance of the filter. Up that to 15K or 20K, minimum. Oiled filters always perform better when they have a little dirt on them, as backwards as that sounds.

Rep Power: 309 the K&N recharge states how many miles you should clean it. it varies as well... theres cone filters and drop in filters.
if i can remember, i think its every 50k miles as the trapped dirt can protect more elements comming thru the fitler than none at all..
