Breathing preferance through mouth or nose?

I breathe through both at the same time. If my nose is stuffed, i have trouble breathing, if my lips are closed, i have trouble breathing.

If I try to breathe solely through my nose, i get chuffing sound (kinda like when your subwoofer's port is too small for the amount of air being moved through it).
 
Get much more air through my mouth. I guess I have narrow nasal passages as well. I try to use my nose most of the time but the rejuvinating breath comes from the mouth.

Crap, now I've become self aware of my breathing and have to consciously make an effort instead of relying on the automatic reflex.

I HATE that...happened to me when I read your post.
 
Nose. The air gets filtered better but in lesser quantities.

Mouth. More air, less filtration.

I prefer nose unless my allergies are acting up or I'm working out.
