Thank you so much for all your help in advance.
This is my actual engine bay,

I was wondering if I would gain cooler air going into the engine or no adding an airbox... I have seen photos of the COBB but I am open to any other suggestion

What is your opinion?

Thank you

It's a cleaner look with the air box, I'll have to get another one as in I'm also not running one.

Yes, yours look good. I have the piece that connects to the chassis but no the clips, bummer. Do you know where to order those from?

Thank you for answering


Usually I get my oem parts from the dealership or this website.

I dont imagine there would be any difference between running with an air box vs without one (while moving), as long as you cover up the front part so the fans dont blow air directly onto the filter, that's where others have reported idling issues. I run an AEM intake with the top off

The biggest difference between the AEM set up is the sound. Leaving the top gives you more spool noise, which to many, are appealing.
For me, I left the top off because I've read that the AEM turbo inlet that came with the intake has tendencies to buckle during higher than stock boost levels.

I get the idea, and those photos are great examples
Thank you
