Default 2016 FLSTN Softail Deluxe Air Intake - What are you running?



I am not digging the factory air intake on my 201y FLSTN. I am looking to upgrade and think I have it narrowed down to the Arlen Ness Big Sucker II or the S&S Mini Teardrop. I am looking to keep an old school chrome look to the bike. I would love to hear a few opinions.

So far stock with high flow air cleaner.
With the rain we get water can be a concern, so until I find one I like it will stay stock.
But I kinda like that S & S, need to get a better look at that one.
If it was solid across the top (maybe 1/3 of the way down).

I have a classic S&S Super teardrop (no cutouts) on my Heritage. If I had a Deluxe, that's what would be on it as well. In fact, I can't think of a model I wouldn't have it on. Love the vintage look. Picture below needs an update......
