Never heard of them.

Do you not want to buy a BMC or K&N filter?

The Stock filter is the best at filtering(bar none) , alot of filters also release lint fibers.  Unless your in a really dirty area(Arizona), stock filter will go 17,000 to 20,000 miles.

I dont like cleaning filters, so Id probably try the BMC, if I didnt want to buy the stock one, although that one looks interesting. But thats about $10 shipping for U.S people.

It looks about the same as the K&N and probably just as good(don't know)....... I agree with Spud, where you live is going to be nice to your filter. Colorado I cleaned mine about every 6 months, here in Virginia is 40k miles and cleaned once and really didn't need it.

But I've read here that the two, BMC & K&N filter, have a difference in how much air flow you get.
Hopefully someone will explain the diff ' .
