K&N RU-2970.  But, it sounds like you need to put a lot more research into this, there are many other factors to consider.

ehhh just hit autozone and grab a RU-2970.   If a shop re-jetted your bike they probably f%&ked it up so just go from there with your jetting :thumb:

Meh, not all shops suck!  Plenty of competent people out there -- you just hear about the screwups of the 10% or so of morons that tend to go out of business after a year.
