Keep the street filter IMO.
There is only a slight difference in the two.

Putting in the more restrictive filter will help to filter all the nitrous you will be spraying. 
I went with the "race":
It's not like you are going to suck a bird through the race filter.
It probably won't make-or-break the performance, either way.

Don't worry... the difference that you will notice will probably be negligible unless you are counting hundredths of a second like Smokin'. Keep the street filter and you will have less maintenance to do and it will protect the engine more.

lol... The race filter does make a bit more HP than the street filter ( Maybe 1 or 2 HP )

I'm using the pipercross race filter. It requires cleaning about every 3000 miles, but that is good practice regardless of filter.
