Will, You already have a K&N filter on your 500EFI. You won't find any arrestors or filters that will flow any better than that or give you any gain in power. Guess it's time to pick a Whipple!

K&N paper elements probably flow well new, but I have seen some problems attributed to moisture on higher hp blower applications. I switched over to the wire and have found it very easy to clean, and looks decent as well. From a supplier standpoint, Eickert's stuff is always good and maybe a few bucks more expensive as well.
