AFE Intake?
Has anyone tried an AFE Intake? The AFE Intake can be had with a no-oil synthetic filter, which I like because it filters better and requires less maintenance. (I know myself and I tend to over tighten and over oil everything...you get the picture.)
I've tried a search and couldn't find much.
It looks a lot like the Blackwing, so I'm hoping gains will be about the same. I'm especially concerned about check engine lights.
My other alternative is to purchase a Z06 airbox lid.

Here's a link to the intake that requires no oil! The intake is sold with either an oiled (blue) or no-oil filter (gray).

Here's a photo of the intake with the synthetic, no-oil air filter installed.
Here's a photo of the SLP Backwing for comparison.
