cold air all the way .......cuzz i have both.....have it in my 2000 gsr.....cold air have better sounds in every rpm....and vtec really pops(noticable)....u will also gain more power from midrange to redline....due to fresh air from under engine bay....the only reason i brought the short ram was becuzz of the raining seasons and i don't want to cut the cold ram for the use of the bypass valve becuzz it will not be the same as a solid cold ram(trust me)....the short ram really sucks...becuzz its drawing in hot engine air....it sounds pretty much like a stock rubber intake with a open filter ...... most power comes in 1st and 2nd gear..the rest feels like stock....but hey its not wrong to have both right.....later
