i use mostly OEM stuff for maintenance. for air filters, i highly suggest the Apex-i unit. check out this link:

but, if you don't over-oil the k&n you'll be fine. i have msd plug wires now, but i don't like them that much. (and i don't even use the plug valley gasket) they just don't feel like they fit well.
for spark plugs, i swear by autolite 3923 coppers. they're excellent. many high horsepower guys use them. true, Bosch plugs suck!
i run a greddy oil catch can. if/when you do this, MAKE SURE to have a vacuum source connected to the top of the can!
