Well, we tried adding a K&N when we were doing dyno runs on a friend's cooper S... we did one run with the stock paper filter, one with a K&N, and one with no filter at all.
They were all pretty much the same... the benefit of the K&N is its ability to handle the dirt better than the stock paper filter, and the fact that you can wash it and keep it helps a lot. The air flow of a CLEAN stock paper filter compared to the K&N is pretty much the same.
I'm not sure about the cold air intake fitments... I don't know much about Cooper aftermarket products.
Hope this helps!
