I've got a 2002 EX with a banks stinger plus system. I bought this truck used and even though it had the banks kit installed, it still used the factory air box with upgraded filter. I'm looking to add one of these intakes. I've noticed a bunch of people prefer the AFE over the K&N. It is almost twice the price so my question is it worth it? What makes the AFE one so much better?

I purchased the AFE stage 2 intake over the K&N because it advertised a higher performance increase than K&N. I did not have the K&N intake to do a comparison, but I am happy with my AFE stage 2.

Here's an install:

I got my new AFE intake installed saturday morning. Seems pretty sweet. AFE makes the install very easy to do. Sounds pretty sweet as well. Thanks.
