Most people say BMC's if you want quality (sold in sets of 2) or K&N if you don't care (sold individually I think so make sure you check when looking at prices).

Some ppl also complain of some minor loss at very low revs but some very minor gains at high revs...not sure it's been prove conclusively but the noise will be more pronounced with new panels.

BMC filters. Others simply don't stack up to build quality.
