Keep in mind doing the CBE and CAI....you'll gain quite a bit with one or the other...but combined it'll be about the same as one on it's own.

I personally like the idea of drop in filters and the MAF tubes to be cost efficient. I've also had some reservations about those filters hanging out in front of the car getting soaked in the rain.
Yeah the FI exhaust is awesome. one of the reasons it's more expensive then say other japanese cars is you have dual pipes. Also, there are cheaper CBE out there for 650-1000 range. I didn't mind paying more though for the best customer service and high quality products.

CBE alone will be about 20 hp. CAI on top of it will add about 8 more. The reason I said maybe is because my other option is dropins/tubes I just like the aftermarket CAI because it looks better imo when you pop the hood. I participate in shows and what not around the chicago area.

Dont worry about the filters. all of the aftermarket cai will not get wet unless you drive into a lake. The way they are positioned makes it almost impossible to get them wet from just rain.
