K&N Air Filter

I have a SE air box on my 2007 RKC. It has been dyno-tuned. If I replace the SE air filter with a K&N, will it screw up the air/fuel mixture? I wonder if the advertised increased air flow will cause it to run lean?

It won't change the air fuel mix going from an SE to a K & N filter element.

But the K & N will last the life of the bike as long as it is cleaned and oiled properly and the screaming eagle filter is unlikely to last that long.
