i know an exhaust shop that can bend 4" pipe so im thinking about getting stainless exhaust and having them bend it. i think itll look good and do the same thing. so i take it the air box that comes with them isnt really important then. i dont see any of you guys running them?

FWIW, Check this one out I just found on ebay for 09-10. Looks like a decent/good looking design. Can't see the filter but I like how it's not sitting up in the bay sucking all the hot air in.

What do ya'll think about this one? Anyone have one of these?

Those are priced reasonably. I found a used K&N -77 kit on eBay at what I thought was a good price ane went with that.
