The general idea is that putting a K&N in the stock air box and removing the baffle is just as good or better than a CAI.

Ive got a BBK CAI though- it was on the car when I bought it and the stock box was long gone.

I have the BBK as well and love it. When I first got the car I did a complete tune up and added the intake. Noticed a definate power increase. Of course the tune up had something to do with that too but all in all the construction of the intake is great.

I'd get a $50 off ebay, they're the same as the name brand ones but a lot cheaper.
