electronic cold air intake? wouldnt waste my money on it. and as far as a cold air intake are you trying to go for the performance qualities (pretty much nonexistent) or for looks? all i did was replaced the stock box with a cone filter and that was good enough for me. all for 30 bucks too.

That's what I plan on doing. Buying a cone filter to replace the square one. A CAI isn't going to help performance wise at all. It looks and sounds good but that's why the cone filter is there. And I also read you can make your own short ram with some tube and a filter for about $60.

I was actually looking into getting a cold air intake myself. Came across this which sounded okay. K&N Cold Air Intake - K&N 69 Typhoon - Direct fit. It's on sale at this site. http://www.discountairintake.com/sto...&Ns=price3%7C0
Is something like this worth purchasing?
