Hey guys been reading about CAI Vs. Short ram and decided to just do a Short Ram (Red to many posts about people sucking up water into engines). So question is a name brand filter going to be better then the filter i have now? Of course they CLAIM to be on the same Page with performance as AEM and other intakes. (But you know how that goes) Pictures of what i have now, i know medal tubing will be better then stock housing. Would i see the same performance from Spectre compared to AEM? Or should i just get the tubing from auto zone and put a K&N filter at the end becuase that will be better? Or just do this setup and it will be about the same as AEM Short ram.

Pictures i have now pretty much much removed stock airbox, and put the filter on end of stock housing.





Should i just buy the medal piping and keep this filter and it will work just as good? Or Buy the piping and return this filter and put a K&N at the end or buy a name brand like AEM.
