Some of the aftermarket intake setups come with a new box while some of the most revered intakes still use the stock box. So I ask the question, what's the point of spending more money to replace the stock airbox? Is there actually more power, more flow, better filtration, less restriction, or cooler intake temps to be found with an aftermarket box? And if so, are those changes even noticeable or measurable? Or is it simply a waste of money to buy a CAI or Volant or similar kit that replaces the stock box with something else?
I realize our options are getting thinner. Three of the more popular kits the TBSS guys used to talk about all the time are no longer produced so that leaves us with K&N, Volant, CAI, and a few others. The three I listed make a kit that replaces the stock box and it's getting harder to find ones that don't.
