Does anyone know if the after market air intake is suppose to be better than the oem one? My oem air intake hose has a crack and I was wondering if I should replace it with an after market one or buy an oem one. The problem is the dealer is the only place I can get the oem and I haven't call them yet to see what the price might be. I called around the auto parts store and none have it. I haven't tried the yunk yard yet. I am trying to see if anyone has one for sale here. Also if I can't find one. I would like to know which after market one is good to get and how hard is it to install. Thanks
