Default AEM or BBK Cold Air Intake? or another brand?

i am going to get a cold air intake for my 92 mustang GT.
but i dont know anything about them! so what one is good for mustangs?

on the BBK website
http://www.bbkperformance.com/produc...ke-system.html

there is one for 139$-Cold Air Intake System
and other one for 159$-Cold Air intake system-fenderwall mount.
im thinking the fender wall one is better for the BBK right?

AEM
http://www.aempower.com/ViewProduct.aspx?ProductID=356
AEM brute force goes for 179.

what one will be better to get? or is there better brand to get?

A slight increase in power, can't really say that you'll notice it if it's your only mod. As for the sound, you'll hear the CAI sucking in air once in a while...if you're stuck on those brands you should check around for them used. There's no sense in buying it brand new if you can get them for half the price in nearly the same condition. Try corral.net, I saw two MAC CAI's on there the other day for like $50 a piece.

Good luck!

i say save your money and get a drop in filter. cold air intakes are just a bunch of bs unless its plastic otherwise they just make the air charge hotter

+1 I'm on my second eBay one, both nice pieces. If you're doing it for a performance gain don't waste your time. If you're doing it to clean up the engine bay the CAIs look much better than the stock garbage.
