Which in your guys opinion is the one to go with, and why? I have been looking at K&N and the cheapest I have seen them is for 285 with the AEM a few dollars less.
Gas savings? Increased HP? Adds to the exhaust tone? Noticeable difference with one?
Give me the scoop please.

As far as HP and Torque increases go , they will vary slightly from car to car, but all of them are very close to each other. I now use a AEM Brute Force . I had a K&N system but I removed it when I started to notice that some dust and dirt particals on the inside of the intake tube. Ever since switching to the Brute Force there has been ZERO evidence of dust in the tube. I also went with AEM because of the larger diameter tube and the fact that they have more experience with Dry Filters then K & N does. No matter which CAI you pick it is a good idea to insulate the intake tube to help keep some of the radiator heat off of it,
