It'd be a long drive back to the factory!

Not worth any amount of money. Just change your box filter to something that gives you better service. And yes there are sceptic about those.

If you are not racing or moding the car to stage 3 there is no point.

I was searched on the official web of both K&N and Air Ride and found lots of technologies and manufacturing process in case of K&N. so I can say that performance wise it is better and Air Ride is cheap that’s all.
