Default cold air intake.

Hi, I'm new to this group. My 98 gt is bone stock and i have decided to make some upgrades. I just changed the intake manifold because the old one cracked, and now I want to add a cold air intake. Does the brand really matter? If so, which is the best and the best bang for your buck so to speak.

Get on ebay and but the coolest looking cheapest one you can find. They are pretty much are all the same and don't really flow any better than your stock air intake.
