Will all the extra filtering capabilities make a huge difference? Probably not. You're just going to throw away (recycle actually) the filter anyway, why bother with something that isn't going to make a relevant difference. Like an Intake for your truck. Sure it sounds cool and looks nice under the hood, but it isn't going to improve anything useful (might even lose some torque if it's really short).

The Honda OEM filter is cheap, won't spin off, and probably has a better guarantee then Aftermarket filters. That there is reason alone to use it.
