BMC it's supposed to provide better filtration. The old generation of K&N it was difficult to get them out. The new generation it's much better , they even have a place, like the stockers for the metal bar.

If you have a pipe without a power commander, then you should stay with the OEM filter...
Using the K-N or BMC will make it run a little lean with just a pipe...
