I'm trying to find one that
1) Sounds good (like engine noise coming out through the intake) which i think is more of the airbox than the filter but, its whatever.
2) Improve performance
3) (Ultimately) Save money with a re-useable filter
4) Not affect the longevity or maintenance of the engine in any negative way.
