new air filter - SV650.org

looking to get a new air filter for my 05 plate sv650. i am restricted to 33bhp tho. would a k&n/bmc filter affect this. i am just looking for the bike to be louder. i have removed the snorkel but would still like a bit more noise.
thanks

Stick on a loud can, you wont notice the air intake noise then

I have both air and oil K&N filters on my ZX and I don't think they make much if any difference in power and definitely don't make any difference in noise, only thing is they are cleanable so no need to change then ever, if you want noise get a cheap can like beowolf or CCC.
