Well i ordered an HKS filter a little while ago, open the box and i was surprised it didnt look like my last hks filter. so i went online to check and see if i got scammed lol. turns out HKS has a new filter on the market.

its not just the volume of air that can pass through, its the pressure differential between the atmosphere side and the intake side. a filter with less pressure differential is more aimed towards better performance, but the gains are minimal at best.
