The BMS filter. Same if not better performance than a cold air intake setup.

Hello, I had a high flow air filter on my '009. It came with the car. I wonder how much HP is really added. Anyone know?

Nothing that you will ever feel. Kind of a feel good mod or can compliment furthering mods thats about it.
Real stuff happens inside the engine...enjoy

Youll hear lots of opinions but after having more cars than I can count I have never felt a difference in CAI, cowl induction special filters, ever.
In fact run a simple paper one these days. Your call your money make it yours.
