No problem, I understand about sticking to quality parts. AFE has been around a bit and makes a decent filter. I compared it to the stock filters and its even sturdier than they are so I felt comfortable putting them in.
For the Cobb tubes, doesn't the corrugated tube also reduce noise in the intake along with the flexibility? It's interesting to me that there is a black resonator-looking box on the driver side OEM corrugated intake. It's directly below the side feed for the PCV vent (I think thats what the side connection is). Wonder if this was tuned to keep the intake quieter, not that I dont want to hear the growl.
