guys i really need opinions and experiences here.  i need to know if i should get an injen or hotshot intake.  which is better wich is worse u know that kinda stuff.  i can get hte hotshot for 150 and the injen for 210.

meh, just get the cheapest one and get a good k&n filter, the pipes really make no difference...i might also add that there is very little difference between short ram and cold air, only sound really...dont believe the CAI hype, short ram is 10x better deal for ur money

I'd personally go with the Injen, better quality from what I've heard. Also I would get the extension, despite what exlude says, have you ever though about where the filter sits when you dont get the extension?? Right there still in the engine bay right next to the radiator and fan.

have you thought of where the air that either intake is comming from sits? 10ft in front of your car before you get to it...the heat of the air going into either intake barely differs...trust me on this one atleast, the short ram is a 10x better deal.  the CAI offers a 1-2 hp advantage...AT MOST, and for what? 70 bucks more?

what about the k&n cone filter with the stock hoses?  is that any good or should i just get the whole thing?

i would go with the wider piping for ur high rpm breathing

I'd go with Hotshot Intake and Injen CAE. Injen and Hotshot intake pipes are the same size... 2.5'' and increases to 3.0'', or the other way around.. whatever.. lol... and injen's CAE (the extension) will fit either. After that instead of putting those hoses that come from your "cam cover area" into your intake pipe, get Engine Breathers, also known as Air Ducts, to increase the air flow in your engine... however you might need to increase your idle a little bit!

Later!
