OK, looking at that pic it looks like SHO-Shop is using the same K&N that I am (though mine may be a bit longer?). Anyway, I can say that on the dyno the K&N was worth 1-2 HP over KKM (with both in a custom cool airbox) but only between 6K and 7K RPM. Not likely to notice that difference but since they are throwing in a heat shield for the money I would favor the SHO-Shop intake. No reports of K&N collapsing at high RPM (like KKM) either.
