I thought the main reason was because the original stock filter housing had a defect that increased the possibility of not sealing. People went with a Tymar because the AIS did not exist.

And today, they both exist. AIS and Tymar filter near equal, and the Tymar/Donaldson filter setup is $$$ cheaper.

The other benefits were lowering EGT's if you tow heavy, or need more airflow for a high performance engine.
