Whatever's at the auto parts store, paper, and cheap.

My model requires a full canister unit that could technically operate without an airbox.

My K&N filter disintegrated after about 3-years operation, and routine maintenance.

Bottom Line: Spend money elsewhere and get an "OK" filter. Filter flow rates are hogwash -- there are many other locations in the air stream that greatly effect engine operation: specifically FE.

Christ -- Your 0-60 results: were they under the same environmental conditions? Otherwise, I call "butt dyno".
