I'm one of those guys who prefers to keep the look of the stock airbox. I did a K&N panel filter with an SLP Blackwing tube from TB to airbox. I did each of those upgrades separately. I think this is a good study you did. K&N advertises 441 CFM flow on their basic panel filter. So to see it flow more than twice that amount is awesome. And K&N also advertises a 5-7 RWHP gain for the $50 filter. Which is a better deal than paying close to $300 for only twice that much. I'd like to see a comparison of flow between the CAI companies in comparison to this chart. And I'd like to see how the flow numbers translate into HP. I felt a seat of the pants difference when I did each of those upgrades but it could have been just me being psyched.
