    so i am thinking about getting a new drop in filter instead of a cai because the 2nd gens pull air from the same place a cai would. is this a good or bad idea?

    It's a good idea. I'm using an aftermarket drop in.

    It is a good idea to use an aftermarket air filter. The most common ones used in our Tacos are aFe Pro Dry S and K&N air filter. There are threads about what people use.
