Default Best intake choice for my ep3

Hey guys, Im looking to finally do some mods to my ep3. This is my daily driver so not going crazy with it. I would like to start off with something simple like an intake. Any suggestions from ep3 owners on what they feel is the best intake (type/brand) for this car is appreciated and about what you paid for yours. Thank you

I apoligize if this is a recent repost. I used search but didnt find what I was looking for.

I'm sure you heard it before, an intake is an intake. But I would go with either the INJEN CAI or the AEM V2. good luck.

considering the ep3 doesnt have "true" vtec, no. you do get all the nice intake noises tho. (slight whistle) sucking in of air, you know the noise.
