Nice writeup - provides confidence to know that this is drop-dead simple and quick. I spent a little extra cleaning all the different intake tubing since it looked like a leaf & sand storm had blown threw.
I simply went with a new stock filter. $23: acceleration sounds more visceral and aggressive; MPGs have soared to where I can't remember the last fill up; +11.3 shp (Seat Horse Power measured via butt-dyno™). Seriously though, for that price I'll replace this about twice per year and have the confidence that I'm properly filtering what goes in my out-of-warranty engine.
