It comes with an hks drop in filter. I think its ridiculous to pay that kind of money for a intake that keeps the stock airbox. If i were you id just buy a k&n replacement if you plan on staying with the stock airbox, im sure you wont see any gains from just replacing the pipe and keeping the box.

I've noticed with all these intakes thy don't offer much of an improvement for the price. What's the avg cost 300-600$? For that I would get the tune or save for full exhaust.

Anyone know what. K&n drop in filter with stock intake would compare to the intake? Or. If k&n is goin to over 1-2 hp I would stick with that. Then again that's me.

i heard the avo intake + a drop in filter adds about 10+ hp. i might go with a cai and if it gives the car any problems ill switch it out with the stock aitbox and just drop a filter in it. idk. i have my agency power catback being made im stoked. 6 weeks they told me.

SRT has the best looking intake (form and function) but its not out yet. I'm excited. I was gonna get their exhaust but I might wait for the intake. I dunno both look great.

you can't expect to get gains without a tune. everything compliments each other. that 200 for an intake will be beneficial when you add a full exhaust and a nice tune.

This aFe air filter is cheaper than the KandN and it flow better.

I would love to hear where you even heard that at. The threads for both Zeta and AVO both only add 3-6 whp depending what kind of drop in you get...
