I will definitely agree wit you on your point. I put the K&N high performance air filter into my OEM airbox on my 2.0T Sport, and I definitely notice a little better performance/responsiveness from the engine, and revving out each gear! I was also on the fence about a cold air intake. However, the power gains you make are very minimal compared with the actual cost of the intake system. That's the problem with it!As @NYounus mentioned some that have went w/the open cold air intake have found that they are getting hot air from motor. IMO the enclosed systems will provide better performance (if that's what you're after) and the open systems will provide the "whoosh" sound but lessen performance. Some have found that just installing a better filter (K&N) in OEM box have provided increase in performance.
