I doubt that the price differene is worth it, just go with the K&N. Afterall how much better can a replacement AIR filter be?

I recommend going with K&N. I used it on my X3 though I can't say I noticed a huge difference. I guess just knowing that the filter is replaced fills my void.

Thanx,... I know that it won't make a difference, at least not a big one, it just helps a little in the engine breathing, but I wanted to know the difference between those. I think I will just go with the K&N and remove the charcoal filter to get a better throttle response.
