If you're looking for HP/Torque - CAI.

Now will that be a noticable difference? Who knows...

I think short ram will give you better low end torque while the cai will give you a little more high end performance. but go with injen thats the best one out there rite now!!

i've experienced both cai and sr from injen and my honest opinion, they are both the same. but on the dyno, yea, cai does give out more hp gain. as for low/top end torque... who knows, depends on how you feel it. but sr is a little bit louder compared to cai.
