Default Cold air intake question

I looked through a few pages for cold air intakes but I didn't see anything listed with thoughts on which intake is the best. or who thinks its the best.

I am thinking about getting the Steeda for my 1996 Gt... what does everyone else think?

dude a pipe is a pipe, go on ebay, buy a cai for your car, throw away the filter and get a k&N filter. your all set. the only reason i have a bbk in my 96 gt is because i got it for 20$.

I bought a BBK kit because the air filter sits inside the fender well. Its supposed to allow for cooler air. I had that on for like 2 weeks, then I took it off.

cai is just for look.
the reason i have it is because the car came with it.
you can make your own.
if i remember correctly someone on here went to home depot bought some pipes and did it himself.
the filter is more important imo.
