make your own with a K&N or something. just make a bracket to hold it in place using the exisiting air box holes and if you want add a heat shield.

The factory airbox is the best and cheapest.

If i was do do it over again I would get the AFE.

From what I can tell the AFE allows airflow from the scoop that sits on the radiator, increasing airflow with speed. The AFE is also one-piece.

The Dinan is in like 3 pieces and blocks the air flow from the scoop. Why would they do this? Also was a pain to line up the pieces.
