Go in my opinion it depends how long you think it will be before you buy some intakes.
Good luck.

Oil type filters require more maintenance. The stock filter (or any paper) filter will flow better after a few thousand miles.
A properly cleaned the oil type filter will flow better, but for a short period of time. That is the reason most manufactures switched to paper type filters many years a go.
Also my personal experience is a lot of people over-oil these filters and you end up with oil residue in the intake and throttle body which is bad.
I plan to stick to paper type stock Nissan filter for at least the warranty period unless it gets turned into a track car ,
