I have a 98 stock KA motor. I was thinking about getting the injen and the CAE x-tension for it. Someone wanted to sell it used for $200 to me. I was wondering if this kit was even worth my 2 bills?

Also i want to change my headlights to the PIAA bulbs. How long do the bulbs last? i've seen cheap ones blow in about a week.

For the whole system $200 is ok (I got the CAI and CAE for $250 New), but if you only get the CAE (Cold Air Extension) then your getting bent over.

I have always ran PIAA for their quality, they have lasted for years when I have owned them. This is even when I use double wattage bubls. I also like the PIAA colors just because they are not blue and ugly like most aftermarket bubls. IMHO, they are great. But they sure are expsensive.
