Default Air filters for HP

Which air filter would give me more HP in a (so far) stock 92 Hatch? Im wanting to get more mid to top end power. I've tried every sticker out there and none of them have come through with their gaurantee of 10 to 20 HP.

Hard to be sarcastic in writing

The K & N air filters are supposed to give you more hp. But maybe you should look into getting a cold air intake.

Yeah I was just reading about a stock b18c5 that made 2 hp and 1 lb/ft of power by switching from stock filter to comptech drop-in filter. Whether that 2 hp matters to you is your decision.
