A K&N can give you an increase in hp and throttle response. But the more air you suck in, the more air you need to get rid of. Also, the more air you bring into the motor, the leaner it will run. The factory filter will filter better than the K&N or the BMC will. So in my opinion, unless you are going to run an exhaust and a programmer, I would stay with the factory filter. JMO tho.......
