Logic would tell you the 5700cc engine would need the airfilter replaced sooner than the 1000cc engine.

Not necessarily true.

In order to take full advantage of the mods.

Also, not true.

We get it. You don't like aftermarket intakes. You don't think they make enough power. You drove motorcycles. Your warranty will get blowed up if you get an intake. Yeesh! If you don't want one don't buy one.

Sidenote: I also agree that it seems you are trying to force your opinion on others. And you are stating a lot of opinion as fact which is terribly annoying.
