Default Best Air filter replacement for curvy - BMC?

My air filter is due a change and thought about BMC. I note that they do two on their website. The standard 205/10 or the race 205/10 RACE. I've also read on some threads on here about a race RS but that's not on their website? What's all that about? Tried searching but as you can't search using terms of 3 letters or less it makes searching for "BMC air filter" a bit tricky!

I don't want to rejet. I have an end can.

Cheers

Yeah I had assumed the race would not be suitable. My original post was pretty vague. I was wondering if anyone has fitted the standard 205 and if there's a benefit over the standard suzuki filter (other than longevity)?

other than longevity, im not sure to be honest, i had the RS on mine for a bit, could notice the diff (mainly in sound to be fair)...but unless your doing a lot of other modding ie full system ect id stick with the standard.....i cant comment on the road unfortunately

I've got a 205/10RS from my old curvy for sale. Only done about 1k.
