Make the switch to a paper element for the sake of convenience if you wish, but not because it's a better filter than a properly-maintained oil bath air filter. They are VERY effective air cleaners but do require maintenance periodically, just as the paper element requires replacement periodically. Where there is no significant benefit to be gained, I'd stay with the original were it my car.
