you said futita Injen and fujita are the best. Thats what the other threads on the topic usualy come down to. If you search CAI theres a few out there already. I'm gonna get a SRI because i like the louder sound when you step on it. The performance that any of them add isnt feelable, so just get what you like the sound of the most. Also look on youtube.com theres video/sound clips there

Thanks, Im on a military network and cant look at youtube, its blocked. Oh well, Ill try when I get home tonight though. I like the looks of the Injen, but Fujita prices arent too bad. Im not to worried about how loud it is, just that it works and looks good!!!!!!(Ok, the sound is good too!)LOL

Well, ok............Um, I was just trying to ask members input on cold air intakes. Problem? Not good to call an elder "stupid"! Ive probable built a car or two more in my life time! Just kidding, this thread is kinda silly. Just dont know whether I want the Injen or Fujita. So, since you responded, whats YOUR choice? Hm?

Pure speculation/observation/question.

Kings motorsports carries the AEM and Mugen systems...is this because they are better than the others? Or do they just not carry the others?

i'll probly get bashed for this but......

IMO most CAI are exactly the same, even replicas and cheapies. The filter is a different story though. Im the type who rocks the expletive outta replica parts. I get the same performance for a cheaper price. some things you cant slack on, must be name brand or oem. otherwise, your just being a fashion *****......

pick one.

Thanks everybody for your input. I will research the cheapest price for a fujita and go with it! I like it, it looks good, if it works-buy it!

you should really consider looking into aem cai they have the dryflow air filter, not only its cleanable and reuseable it resist into high heat so its great for those who plan on getting fogs cuz its close to the intake filter

If the "chop the resonator" thing turns out to be bust, I'm getting the AEM. I'd rather have the dryflow filter, and I like the color choices lol.

Actually went back to an old thread where everyone hated the AEM CAI.

So, think there'd be an issue using an AEM dryflow filter on different (injen) tube?
