if your heart is set on a CAI I would also go with JLT. they have a "ram air intake" which keeps the filter and kit inside the engine bay, and a "cold air intake" which relocates the filter in the fenderwel. look here : www.jlttruecoldair.com

JLT all the way. But I've been told by many that CAI's and SRI's add about the same as just a K&N air filter. But on JLT's website, they guarantee like a 10rwhp gain. So the $200 might just be worth it. Just check their website, they have dyno results.

Man i picked up a generic from Ebay for $40 and noticed a nice gain. After my TB and PL i have definitle power over 3k. I just didn't see the need to spend $250 on a CAI when i could spend it on suspension or other power adding items.

Now there is the whole "you get what you pay for" but i took a chance and this CAI was's any different then anything else i saw in the shops.
