Default HKS or Injen Intake?!

I have been searching all around for information about these two intakes and I still can't decide on which to buy..
Does anyone have any pros and cons about these intakes?
Like the hp gains and etc.

any opinions?

thanks

Injen shows the most gains from all the intakes out for the tC. Never seen the HKS intake for it.

i'm think i'm going to get the HKS intake and give you guys a heads up on it..I'm pretty sure it would work well with the HKS exhaust i plan on getting as well

why try something that doesn't have much reviews, might as well get the injen one since it's proven to be 1 of the best.

Like web said Injen has been proven to make the most power out of all the intake on the market. They actually take the time to tune the intakes for the car and not just bend a pipe to fit the car. Not saying that's what HKS is doing I just know Injen is a quality product.

Don't take the bumper off...........It's much easier and faster just to take the driver's side tire off and go through the wheel well.

If you want an intake for your scion, get AEM Cold Air Intake. One of the
best out there. Check up on it, you'll like it. I have one for my scion tc,
after you get that, your car will sound so good and the performance is
great. i'm an AEM kinda guy.
