That money would be well spent in other areas. None of them are worth what you pay for them. They're more show and sound than anything. If you want a little more performance for that kind of money buy a tuner that will allow you to tune for 93 octane. That would be the biggest bang for the buck and still not worth it IMHO.

EBAY. Get the $35 cheapo w/ a k&n. In fact, the k&n has a plastic tube vs the cheapo w/ a mandrel bent aluminum. the brand name kits include a "cold air isolator" which, IMO you can make your own for a lot less....and better too. Look at my jeep build under project x-jay. I have stuff done that might help you. Did my intake+ram air for under $50!

Well I drove into the nearby town taking the main road away from my area. We just got tons of rain and on the way back the road was flooded over w/ 2 ft. of flowing water. First a stock Grand went through ahead of me and looked ok. I them proceeded and the water was up to my front bumper. Using the fording method and rolling forward, I created a bow wave and was all good! No intake issues or anything. I was probably going 8 mph. I'm happy!

Look at these pics and make it yourself:
In retrospect I wish I would have.
Heres your "cold air isolator" or splash guard or heat shield or whatever you want to call it. I just reused the old airbox.
Final product
