I used another manufactures pre filter (Filterwears). It's similar to the Turbo Guard and I lost 5 psi with it on. I'm not sure what the psi loss is on the k&n filter.

Hmm ok
I have a pipe down into my wheel well now with a big k&n on and it felt like it pulled a bit harder with the one topz supplies indent know what psi I've lost

Just wonder how well these pre filters would keep the dirt out

The pre filters work well, I've got one on my AEM CAI filter on my Eclipse and the filter looks like new.

Do you run without a boost gauge? That would be a pretty common way to see what's going on. Especially if your modifying breathing components.

No I dont run a boost gauge at the moment but I'm going back on dyno soon for a re tune as my charger needed a re build at the time of tuning due to a broken impeller
