Default Which intake should I get?

Ive been searching alot for intakes and it seems like most people have AEM or J's racing they both seem to have the same results or very close to on the dyno, is there anything "better" I could look into getting, mugen maybe?

Does it really matter which one you get? mt friend got a $30 dllar one off ebay and it sounds just as good as my other friends AEM cai. Intakes dont give you that much of a hp gain, so it doenst really matter which kind you get, they all do the same thing, but some can make your engine sound mean

you have a rare talent you can hear a motor and tell how much hp it has. if you don't think intakes make a difference your wrong.they make a big difference.dont be a magazine racer.

you can put a filter over it when driving on the road. i know they have been around for awhile. you don't have to always us the filter on the road either.

that defeats the purpose of the stack. the point is to draw the air around and behind the stack into it. not just in front. a filter would make it infront only and itd be dumb.

so take the filter off if you don't want it on.I wouldn't always run it without the filter.
