I wonder if that is because the AWE air box flows more air but the stock filter choked on it.

Yes, i was being very cautious. Yes I probably didn't do it in the order AWE would suggest. Yes, I am happy how the power is delivered and the added intake noise.
You did get to experience the difference our high flowing filter makes, and we're glad you're now getting the most out of your S-FLO.

Default Swapping out intake and find pegs broken

I was swapping about the intake for the OEM intake for the 5000 miles service, and found that 1 of the pegs was broken off and just sitting in the rubber grommet. I am very mechanically inclined and am surprised that this broke during driving as the peg was just sitting there before i even started removal.

My opinion is that now you should just get the higher flow filter. For 1000 bucks it shouldn't break like it did below.
