Default Halltech TRAP Questions

I am interested in upgrading from my current Donaldson to the TRAP this winter as one of my projects. I have a couple of questions hopefully someone can provide some data on:

1. I know the Donaldson to be a very good air filter from a filtering stand-point, I have no data on the TRAP filter. Is there any data that someone can provide to ensure that there is no sacrifice in filtering ability to obtain some performance?

2. There are 2 carbon fiber colors I am interested in, but there is no photo's of these colors on the Halltech web site. I have a Mag Red II car and think the 50th Anniversary Red would be a pretty good match. However, they also list a Stinger Candy Pomegranate Red. Anyone know what this color looks like or possibly have photos of either they can post?

Thanks

Jim Hall will provide all of this. He says the filter is the best thing since sliced bread - fabricated from the unmentionable hairs of virgins from the forests of Zodor or some such.......
He has pictures of all of his stuff, and it all looks terrific. Better yet, it is very well made when you get it in your hands - ought to be - $$$.

Regarding your first question, I asked Jim the same thing, and got this response: "Our TRAP filter is the best filter media on the market. Synthetic
Dupont ReMay. We tore an engine down after 22,000 miles with this
media, and had no carbon deposits at all. The bores were as smooth as
glass."

On the other hand, I think George's reply is much more
