Default 19,000 miles need new air filters.... advice?

Would like to go CAI but no point unless I change exhaust......
(I want NPP mild to wild but not in the budget)
What to do?
All my other cars I run K&N..... seems like a waste of money without CAI
Should I Amazon some cheap ones / Frams for now?

Well,,,,,,, If you plan on modding,,, get the inexpensive paper ones for now and save funds until you can get all your stuff. The VARARAM is a very CAI that actually works!

There are lots of small bolt on mods that you can get done that help. Consider headers for a very good boost in power and when you get them all done, have the PCM Tuned.

Bill is right on...take it in steps, you can't mess up anything anyway...it just gets better and better with every change that improves your engine's breathing.
