only thing with having your own tubing, if you're in cali, the aem, k&n, injen, etc. all have a CARB exempt sticker that is required if you're getting a smog check. the inspector will not pass you until you have that sticker or put the stock air box back on. Other than that, the ebay CAI work well with a good filter

I kept my box with the filter and take the top of the box off and it sounds the exact same as any other cai.

Now thats old school. LOL ^^^ The only problem (I thought) would be that the filter would get dirty faster.
