for a fraction of the price, you get over 90% of the performance increase. they have ones as cheap as $25 for the basic one with one of their filters.

i bought the same exact ones. the seller was pretty good. i heard from most people who have bought both the expensive ones from the manufacturer and those ebay ones and they said they saw no difference. you do have to be careful though because some of those ebay ones are junk but these ones i found good
theres even a DIY for those exact ones somewhere here in an old thread.

Would imagine it would cost about the same either way ya go, would just be easier to buy one.

saved the ebay store, if ya say there fairly decent ill roll with it.

a homemade CAI, thats not a bad idea either. i think there is some guy who made his out of supplies from Lowes lol. i dont have any experience with metal fab or know anyone who could this so i just decided to take the easy route and buy one. Im sure you could make yourself for a lot less cash.
