theyre all the same really. as long as you get a fenderwell mount. all use k&N style filters and smooth bending tubing you could make one your self for cheaper

just get a professional products intake about 275.00 and a polished one is like 325.00 they flow well and save you 100.00 or so

I was told using a 76mm C&L with a fenderwell moutn cold air kit will screw up the airflow just enough in that little elbow. I ran that setup and it was alright... but what are you supposed to do if you want to keep the 76mm C&L? Not use fenderwell?

all a fender wall mount cai does is collect cooler air than the engine compartment, if you cant use it dont worrie about it, espesialy if it is 95+ outside, ofcourse engine compartments are much warmer than 95 but after you take in the asphault radiation heat your really close to the same when moveing.

get a Moroso relocation kit for about $100. it is just the elbow that relocates the filter into the fenderwell.
