I see 3 major companys offering this....AEM, Injen, and Typhoon.
Yer thoughts on all 3?
I like the Injen and AEM because it has a nice polished look but they also seems to be the more expensive ones at $230.
Can someone explain the major differences in the brands. Like whats better about Injens then the AEM's and vice-versa?
Adding this make my exhaust sound better right?

Then browse to the intake and it's final price is $144.35 with Free Shipping. They also have good deals on Springs, Strut Bars, etc.

I had another intake first, but when I put the Injen SR on, believe it or not, I FELT a difference. Real throttle response, and good sound...
Once again, INJEN
Oh, and the box included a free "Injen xB" badge. Not a sticker(got those too) but a Badge! It looks cool... I put it where the RS.1 badge would be! :D

If you are going to do mostly city driving, then the Injen short ram is what you want. If its freeway driving then the Injen cold air intake.
For some reason, I think the "water check valve" on the AEM cold air intake hurts the flow of the air thru the intake. The "valve" is a piece of foam. There has got to be some reducing of pressure thru that.

buy the cheaper one between aem and injen. they're both good. ppl will continue to suggest to you one or the other, but most people cannot tell you why, and the ones who tell you why cannot prove their points.

I just dig the sound of the AEM, and that's all. Dunno why. It's just a very cool sound.
Maybe if I was to race I would want something else, but this works for me.
