My 2 centimes - your engine's system is tuned to operate on the stock Kymco filter just fine.
K'nN filters are every bit as effective as adding a racing stripe or a louder muffler.

I'd go with a nice stripe, for better speed.

Thanks Stig, tell me should I replace my filter or just keep on cleaning it with high air hose?

No expert here - but clean it as well as you can - or replace at the proper mileage/years per your service schedule.
If you're not riding in dusty conditions - it might stay good for a long time.
