You are paying more for the TRD name, than you are the filter.

Oh, and at TRDUSA.com, they are only $50.
EDIT:
And I assume that you are talking about the air filters that fit in the stock box, not a CAI or SRI, because TRD does not make those to my knowledge.

if you pay 100$ for a filter than ur crazy. why do you want this filter? Performance or just cz its trd? if you want Performance, you gotta get a cai or short ram. if you want noise, then remove ur butterfly valve.

go k&n, way better than the trd. TRD is a rebadged K&N sometimes you can find someone here selling a used one.. for about $25 buy that instead then save up for an Intake
