Default Who's got the Best Cold Air Intake for tC?

What's up fellow Scionist!
I'm in the market for a CAI for my tC. i'd like to hear from those who have a CAI or have experience with them on past cars.
tech babble from wannabe gearheads discouraged.

Thanks for your time and help

K&N Typhoon CAI is the only CAI available at the moment for the tC. Weapon R has 2 short rams available also.

I myself will probably hold out for the AEM one if it ever comes out, or an Injen, GReddy, or DC Sports if they come out first.

just got the K&N installed about two weeks ago and its great highly recommended. Adds a deep tone to the TRD exhaust.

I think the Injen CAI is the best out there right now. But Fujita is OK too but basically the Injen and the Fujita design is almost the same so it doesn't really matter.

Injen, hands down.

I'm running SRI at the moment, but I plan to convert back to CAI tomorrow.

I feel a little more push on the highway, and I feel like I save a little bit more gas running CAI as well.

Sounds great too.
