They should be roughly the same. The color is in the oil.

In my signature the 325hp was with no filter, with the paper filter it was 322hp. After the LT install I got 341.8 with no filter and 340.9 with the paper filter. I'm going to stick with the paper filter.

The K&N is made a little thicker in construction, other than that its the color of the oil like what was already posted. The Cool Blue is almost flimsy compared to the K&N depending on which part #s you compare(I sold both at the speed shop I worked at).
