Hey guys any info on which filter will net the biggest gain in ponies? Or suggestions on a different filter?

 

I have heard great things about BMC race filters. K and N will typically decrease horsepower right out of the box until you get a custom tune using a PCIII. I don't know exactly what BMC will do out the box but if you've ever seen one they're pretty thin.

 

Show me dyno numbers and i may believe one is superior to the other.

 

they are all the same basically... no air filter is goin to really make you feel that the bike is faster.. if it does.. it's in your head

 

Yeah no chit....IF an air-filter really makes ur bike faster and you can feel it...Then imma put 5 of them on my 954, LMAO.....=-)

 

I prefer the K&N's, they're what I always ran on my vdubs and chevys.

 

I'm probably go with a K&N again (had it in my last bike) just because of the reuseability factor.

 

I've ready several writeups on several CBR websites and they say K&N did not fair as well in increasing performance as the BCM so I purchased the BCM race filter. On one forum a guy posted runs of the bike before and after both airfilters were placed on the bike and the BCM was better by 1-2HP.

 

I have a K&N in my 600R and a BMC in my 929 and if I had of known about the BMC filters when I bought my 6 that's what would of been in it!

its better quality in my opinion

 

I might try the BMC then. Not too concerned about maximum HP gain (believe it or not [well maybe a little bit]), but don't have a problem trying something different.
