Yea, it give you 50 more HP
You can get 100 HP increase if you replace your blinker fluid

IF there is in fact an increase in HP, it is only due to a slightly increased air flow and therefore it is filtering less. Effectively it would have bigger holes in the filter material and that means larger dirt particles pass into your engine. Any (if in act any) HP increase is negligible at best

Stay with the paper disposable filter and check it at least twice a year, more if you drive in a dusty or dirty environment
