i'm just saying that there isn't enough of a difference to justify a $100+ price difference. especially when you can buy a cheapo intake off of ebay for $40 give or take and buy a k&n cone filter and have the exact same performance as a more expensive AEM intake. the ebay intake i bought has all of the same mounting stuff that all of the expensive ones do and performs just as well. the old "you get what you pay for" saying doesn't always hold true.
