Most of the K&N related MAF isues I have heard of have been related to recharged ones where the asshats didn't read and/or follow the instructions and tried to do a recharge in < hour, and/or used more than the reccomended amount of oil. The filters have to be completely dry before you oil them and most idiots won't wait that long.

That's the thing tho, with Nissans anyway, is that for some reason, they are SUPER picky, and I've seen TONS that crap out with no oil from the filter on them. As soon as you drop the new, factory oiled filter in, you get a CEL. Maximas and Sentras are notorious for this!
Kind of Apples and Oranges, Nissan and Subaru, but IF the Subi MAF is nearly as sensitive, I could see it being the problem. I'd like to think it may have shown up sooner tho...
