When Doc tuned my bagger, I asked him that question. He said just replacing the filter element would not require anything by way of tuning.
Just went today on my lunch break and ordered one from Autozone. Cost $54.99. They don't have them in their system yet but they still can order them direct. The manager I was dealing with today called K&N direct and they have plenty in stock.

If I was to change mine out from the se a/c would I have to do anything other than putting in the new k&n filter?

I agree. There may be a VERY slight performance gain by changing out the OEM SE filter element to a K&N replacement, but not enough that you should throw away a perfectly good SE filter before it has lived its useful life. Once the SE one gets dirty.....say after about 5-10K miles then sh!tcan it and install the K&N.
