Default CF INTAKE from Lextasy

What's the advantage having a CF Intake? How much power can you get from it?

Also, where is the breather hose attached to when changing out the stock Intake?

CF does not heat up as fast and keeps air temps lower then a stainless steel pipe would... not that it would yeild huge HP diffs. but that is why companies use CF.

Lextasy uses a breather filter instead of the stock hose.

Here is a pic of mine:

How often do you have to replace the breather Filter?

Wait a minute, if you took out the hose, doesn't the air supposedly use for cooling the engine in a way?
