Default Which panel filter

As the title suggests guys, which do you recommend? Ive heard some are not too great? Car is a JDM blob with remap and full Miltek, no other engine mods. Budget not an issue.

Cheers!

Didn't fancy oil-coated ones, so went for Pipercross.

I've heard from a respectable mapper that he would not recommend cosworth filters

Read loads of reviews online and redline did a good review few years back. I went for a K&N, was about £35 online. Can't say anything bad about it. Haven't noticed too much increase over the oem but I haven't really driven it hard.
