Used lid and save the rest.
25HP from the SLP CAI? Not after you've sat at idle and heated
up the stainless and your IAT sensor, nuh-uh.
I'm against oiled filters on any MAF equipped vehicle.

Get a lid and a standard paper Fram fliter. Works great. Skip the other "flowpac" stuff.

I think smooth bellows are a waste of time. Aside from not really doing anything, they were a real pita when it comes to getting to your filter. I have to unscrew it from the tb, or unscrew my lid from my maf. The stock bellows was a lot easier because of how its made with that accordian kinda material, it's a lot easier to move around. You can move your lid around and still keep it attached to the bellow and tb.
Next time I replace my air filter(with another paper one) I'm also putting the stock bellows back on.

You think its a waste of money to do FRTA and smooth bellows, or good enough for the every little bit helps category? I have been reading and there really isnt a def answer, just looking for opinion of somebody who is knowledgable
