I got mine straight from K and N, came the day after I ordered it.

Honestly you're saving 5-15 beans at the most (if at all really).It would make sense to price shop on bigger ticket items like headers or something where you can save upwards of 200 bucks, but personally I would just order it from wherever will get it to you the quickest.

I use to use K&N but found that the green filter was a better quality material:

Got mine from amazon. Same basic idea but the cloth holds up better after cleanings.

JRP most likely has them if you want local (Mississauga).

Try Tougetuning - they have a website, and are located in Mississauga.
I bought mine from them way back.

Also, can try BRZ World's online store, or FT86Motorsports (in QC).

IIRC, they all had pretty decent prices.

EDIT: K&N prices (not incl. tax and shipping)
Tougetuning: $63
FT86Motorsports: $59
BRZ World: $48
Alphamotorsports: $104

Just want to add, FT86Motorsports has the Blitz filter which was dyno tested making around the same power of the K&N. It's a dry filter which is nice if you don't want to deal with the issues associated with an oiled filter.

Sorry our pricing is messed up.
We have a new site being built and it was supposed to be taken down for maintenance.

We have the drop in filter in stock - its 49+HST

I was wondering about that.... most of your prices usually look pretty competitive!
Thanks for the correction!
