Default Which brand of CAI is best

Is there one specific brand or model of CAI that people generally consider to be the best for a 4.6L 2V? I have a K&N filter and removed the silencer but want to upgrade to the real deal but want to make the best choice.

Hmm..I guess I'll order the JLT then. The BBK looked pretty sweet too, but I know very little about CAI's so I'll go with the recommendation. Thanks

I agree. I have the BBK...it looks good and makes a cool swoosh sound when I hit the gas, but that is all. Other than that it is just a pain in the *** to pull the filter to clean it.

Dang it! Why are you people trying to save me money!? Now I'm torn! It seems like a logical, traditional upgrade... but now I'm hearing words against getting one.
