Default real k&n intake, or ebay k&n intake

Im going to get an intake for my car, i was going to go k&n, they go for well over $200, on ebay i can get a chrome intake with a k&n filter for about $70 shipped. I was wondering if they will create nearly the same hp since they use the same filter? I kinda figure i will lose hp from gettin a chrome intake anyway b/c it will get a lot hotter than plastic, and will heat up the air going into the engine. But not sure, what shuld i do

lmao i once was gullible and believed the ebay intake scam. You can make that intake for about 10 bucks at homedepot. You may loose hp with the ebay intake. When it comes to air intake dont be cheap get a k&n or moroso. This is the best advice i can give you, for when i bought it i was 70 bucks poor and stuck with the gayest intake i had ever seen.
