Default Intake the same?

aren't all intake pretty much the same, as in they do the same thing, its just the name? so like one thats $150 would be just as good as one for $200?

A lot of people will tell you thats true, but I dont agree with it at all. You get what you pay for in life, thats my theory.

If i was gunna waste money on an intake, it would be a JLT. I prefer K&N with my silencer removed tho, since I plan to supercharge later.
