what is the advantages and disadvantages of both ? also what is the sense of having a good air filter ?
you can take this to the bank leave the factory system in place unless you feel your a induction engineer the factory paid them [engineers] alot of money so your engine would perform over the intire rpm range

I prefer the cold air intake that came on the car from the manufacturer. You don't have to worry about moisture or water entering the air filter as with aftermarket cold air arrangements. Read the last sentence of your question carefully. The better quality air cleaners finer particles dust and dirt are filtered out. You will never see dirt particle size (micron) ratings associated with high flow air cleaners. How often does your motor operate at WOT (wide open throttle)? That's the only time the engine MIGHT make one or two more horsepower if you used a high flow air cleaner. During the period of time you twist the key and start the car the motor is swallowing more abrasive dust and dirt when you use high flow air cleaners. Hold a high flow air cleaner up to a light and you'll see why!
