It is sensative beyond 1,000nm and I have used one with a B+W 094 filter.
The results are diffrent with the various filters, however they are not
'spectacular'.  The image does change and becomes a stronger IR image with
the 094 but I think you would not be able to tell unless you saw them side
by side.  In short I would suguest that if you already have a IR filter you
use that one, however if you have to buy a anyway just for the camera
perhaps the 094 would give the best results?  Though it depends on what you
are wanting to use it for.
