K&N or Others?

The cheap ass cone air filter that was in my car when I bought it is now melted into peices, glue everywhere, so, time to upgrade. Of course everyone says get K&N, but I've heard many things. I have a b16a, and would like to know which brand of filter would be best for my car, what you guys use and your experiences with others.

Thanks

Brian

K&N is pretty much the benchmark for performance air filters, and I think there's probably reason behind it.

I would go with K&N, why settle for less?

K&N is a rechargeable filter, you can use it forever spend 50 bucks once or 20 everytime that generic filter gets cloged up or really dirty.....it'll add up........

K&N filters dirt better than the cool blue filter but still gives a healthy increase in performance, the cool blue will net you more HP, but you'll spend more moeny cuz it will need to be cleaned more often.
