Default Air Filter Element

I am running the SE stage 1 with the round Harley filter element, but am looking at the Wimmer element. The Wimmer is the same size in diameter front and back as the Harley, but it sticks out about 5/8" more. Just had the bike dyno tuned and set up, if I go with the Wimmer, will this effect my set up? Looking at the Wimmer as it is a black element compared to white for the Harley filters or the basic color of the K&N's.
I am pulling the chrome air cleaner off and will have an exposed filter with the a Joker black finned a/c cover I have ordered. So am looking for a black element and Wimmer had one I liked.

More air may change your setup slightly... "google" wimmer air filter element for HD... lots of places have them.
