Default CAI

Just wondering what everyones thoughts are on Cold Air Intakes for the 2005 Neon SXT automatic. I'm seriously considering buying the K&N Typhoon Series CAI for $220 new. What do you guys think? Would you suggest something else?

Haha yep I agree K&N is the best filter provider. I found these three CAI's on Ebay. Lemme know what you guys think.

BTW, I'm really new to the Neon and don't know a whole lot about it yet other than engine specs. So if I'm asking dumb questions, I'm sorry.
