Here are some comparison photos and a little math for your viewing pleasure. I might mention that you can SEE THROUGH the K&N, down in the folds.
This particular part fits a 2003 MB C320 Kompressor coupe. The K&N has 128 square inches of filter media, the Mann has 1752 square inches! That's over THIRTEEN TIMES the filtering area! Attached image(s) |

Not that applies to our engines, but I repeat that K&Ns, when properly oiled, are noted for contaminating and rendering useless hot wire and hot film MAFs. Save on filter changes, blow 10-20 times the savings on EACH MAF replacement.
