I don't think there's any magic formula. To increase airflow, you've got to give up some filtering power. No?

Yes, probably. I don't know what percentage of the increases are due to the elimination of baffles and larger tube compared to the higher flowing filter but there should still be benefit to just doing the filter. As for the concern for filtering, if i'm doing dirt road or dusty area driving i'd throw the fram back in, but for everyday city/highway driving i'm fine with what the k&n or equivalent (AEM in my case) will provide.
