Thanks for all the comments guys.

I'm going to keep her stock.

However, it seems that i'm missing one of the clips...guess i'll have to figure out a way to clamp that side shut. Maybe I can scavange one of similar design from another car. I've read you might have to buy the whole air box since clips are not sold separately.

Thanks again, oh and by the way I bought 2 factory air filters so it looks like i'll be using the stock air box for sure
