Air filter

What would be a better air filter k&n or bbk? I'm leaning more towards k&n.

You will get maybe 1 more horse power... If that... air filters are minimal (and I mean bare minimal) horse power adders

Late chime in, but I have the flat panel K&N and I have been satisfied with it so far. Either filter should flow better than the paper one.

I prefer the "dry" reusable high flow filters - one less step & no messy oil to worry about when servicing.
