Simple drop-in filter replacement?

I know, it's dumb...but I just don't feel like spending the money on a full intake right now. Just wondering if K&N is still on top, or if there is something else on the market that is doing a bit better as far as flow (while still being a good filter)?

Always debatable subject but really it's up to what you want to pay. K n N vs other drop ins have similar gains. Personally I have the works drop in filter. You can feel the gains too. Supposedly they gain up to 10hp. I got it and I believe it gained something, dunno if it's 10hp but it "works!" (pun intended ) Read up on them and see what you believe.

K&N, HKS, AVO, Perrin, Cosworth, M7, APEXi, aFe, etc are all great options. They all gain around 10WHP at the crank like " WORKS " says. WHP is very different though.
