Most of these "Cold Air Intakes" yield about the same results. The question is, which name brand do you want to go with. The K&N intake is made out of plastic and will keep your intake charge cooler, which is what you'd need on a hot day. The aluminum intakes tend to take in more heat, since they are aluminum. But the truth is, the stock intake system is actually nicely built. You could remove the air silencer in the fender and plug in a K&N filter, or you could go to Ebay and buy one of their aluminum kits for under $50(I did this for two cars and they worked great).

...Your car has a CAI stock, you don't need another one.
Just buy a K&N drop in filter, remove the air silencer, and save yourself the money.
