What is a good cold air intake?
 

Hey, I got a 010 xb and looking for a cold air intake. What is a good one for fairly reasonable price?

thanks chris

Gonna have to say Injen.

all intakes do the same thing i say get the cheapest one u can find!

A CAI is not forced induction but Tenzo-R is the bang for the buck champ, IMO.

i just put that sweet stretchy vacuum tube with a nos sticker on it...+45 hp no big deal :)

there will awalys be a debate where or not All CAI do the samethingh i mean we all know it bring on more air now the big question is do different manfatures are better then others might be the case but most people cant dump $200-$300 on a Piece of piping so they buy a cheap one from ebay then buy a quality filter and boom your good..so its the filter that makes the difference from what i heard...i have a 06 tc with a Injen CAI yea i spent $$on it....but again i beleive all intakes arent the same they might do the same but the filters or different

i went with the "cheaper" approach by buying a bomz one for my tC because i had one for my old honda. well it keeps tripping the check engine light. i took it off and am saving my money for a fujita. just my experience from going with the cheap way

Injen, nothing else to say.

cool guys, yeah im new to the site and realized i had it in the wrong section. But its cool, still answered my question. lol

thanks

i totally agree.
if they're made with the same material, then they are pretty much the same. Name brands just bump up there price because of their name haha

AEM and TRD. Reason I say that, is fit and finish and dyno numbers. I think Injen would be, but I have not seen dyno numbers.

Also, the TRD is good to ease the mind on hydrolocking.

injen is by far the best out of all of them.

Opinion, pushed off as fact ,is such a common thing on forums...

thanks guys this really narrows it down. I think i have it down to Aem, Injen, or the TRD.

Indeed. I wonder what makes Injen far better than AEM or TRD? Maybe Injen comes with cooler looking stickers?

Love my TRD CAI. I paid $275.40 for mine. Not cheap, but it's very well made, looks great and was easy to install.

Not a bad price for TRD. Looks real nice to.

I got it here: http://parts.donjacobsscion.com

Even though I have a 2009, I ordered the one for the 2008 xB - PTR03-52082 (it was $23.00 cheaper), knowing it would fit. They actuallly sent me the current version PTR03-52100 with a note in the box that the one I ordered had been discontinued and replaced wit the one they shipped.

Their shipping rates were also very reasonable. I ordered the CAI, front strut brace, fog lights and TRD oil filler cap and they charged less that $15.00 shipping (from Wisconsin to Oregon) for everything.

Definitely recommended.

The reson why I say Injen is better because all the others say they bost hp by 12-15 Injen is 14-15 so it might give you up to 16 hp. You never no just my opinion.
