It was well worth it in my opinion. Others may have a different view and there's nothing wrong with that. But I love it and would recommend it.
I installed the Banks CAI in my '12 yesterday & I am in love with it! I agree with the increase in throttle response & it sounds 1000% better! I highly recommend it!

Yesterday I drove through 2 1/2 feet of water due to heavy rain. Thank goodness I got rid of my cai.

I have the banks cai for a few months and I dont think I gained anything. Just lets you know when you are stepping on it (imagined throttle response increase). Acceleration and mpg the same imo but I am going back to stock just to test out the mpg difference, then decide what works better. Filter looks like it would be harder to remove than air raid's cai.
