Going back to stock intakes?!!

Will it really be worth it tho to switch? I don't want to waste $600 or whatever it costs for almost no other gains

I haven't looked at the dyno results between them but I'm guessing Gen 3 produce a little more hp. Now I was only answering your concerns about the worries on hydro-lock, thats for you to decide if it's worth the hp gain, you can sell your Gen 2 to offset the cost if you decide to change.

No. If anything you can try the stock setup. If you feel that you want to go back, you can go back to Gen 2 (that you already have)

This is a good advice too.
