I'm thinking of goin back to stock and while I'm at it, putting a K&N filter instead of the paper filter.

Default Seeing as how the stock airbox and airfilter flow the same as the aftermarket cones...

Do you think it's worth buying the K&N filter for the stock airbox, meaning, do you think you get any increased flow?

Default proabably not much of a quantifiable amount...

They do flow better than paper but it is likely not enough to show up on day to day driving.

Default Waste....

I went back from Hyperflow to stock, and notice ZERO perf loss, and can hear my Milltek more. = )
