Default Descendant CAI

Any where I could purchase a Descendant CAI? Anyone know if it is better than Injen?

since Descendant is out of the Scion market there aren't making it anymore...doesn't mean its impossible, but theres a chance some of their authorized dealers (or them themselves) might have 1 or 2 in their storage, forgotten...going to have to call around and cross some fingers

intakes are all the same really, they do the same thing, sound about the same, and none gain anything significant performance wise. so you're left if judging based on looks. with that i said, i love and prefer my decsendant cai over injen

NUH UH! My injen is way more better

...but really, if you care about brand - get the brand you like more and put that sticker on your car. otherwise, its all pretty much the same stuff. just look for the best price.

No need for a CAI. Money wasted on only 1-3HP gain.
I rather use the drop in K&N air filter.
