Supercharged M54 question

Gents - I'm considering swapping my OE airbox for an AFE pro dry or another DRY setup (found out the hard way that you shouldn't run oiled filters through a boosted setup)

Two questions
1. Should I swap out the factory box? If not why?
2. Is there anyone besides aFE that's worth a look?

Current setup is an M54B30 with an ESS twin screw stage 1 and headers/exhaust redo.

Have you looked at Dinan? I still have my setup. I chose it because I figured there was a good chance it would work with the ESS kit... and then went with VF...

Nope didn't even see that as an option -

edit - dinan's actually cheaper... AFE makes some pretty outrageous torque claims, dinan doesn't have a torque number... thoughts on that?
