Are airfoils really worth getting, or are they just snake oil? I bought one when I was younger for my 89 iroc, when I thought K&N airfilters were the most amazing thing ever, ive come a ways since then, just seeing if anyone thinks their worth it. And if so is there a brand I should stay away from?

The idea makes sense, that's why all aftermarket throttle bodies have that design built in.
