Default Cone filter? or BFI?

I've done research and both the BFI and cone filters seem to work for people. I was just wondering what people would suggest I do to my '92 sc400.

BFI or k&n cone filter? which is better

My setup, well i got somewhat of a hookup, but that doesnt mean its expensive. The Air Filter i got at Discount Auto Parts for 20 bucks, part of the hookup, the small adapter plate to the maf got at pepboys for like 5-10 bucks, the big BBK Tube i got from my buddy for free (which also included the two blue connector tubes. Only customization we had to do was drill a hole in the BBK pipe to attach the vacuum hoses to.
