Cold Air intakes hardly do anything for your cars performance. Just go with the C&amp;L mass air meter. It's comes with the filter the heat sheild. And they sell one with the upper intake tube also.

*L* mass air will do more than the CAI, but longtubes will do more than both those combined <IMG src=smileys/smiley2.gif border="0">
