I've been searching around on the forum and look like HPS shortram is only for F-Sport and Takeda CAI is for both. Any other CAI option for non F-Sport?
Thanks

Oh I see. Because on the HPS website shows for f sport so I thought so. So which one is better performance and sound? HPS and Takeda? Thanks

Looks like Takeda is the better option. HPS uses the same sound generator that you currently have, so nothing will change there. Obviously the Takeda is about $200 more than the HPS though.

HPS is thicker and is smoother inside so air will flow with less restrictions. Im not sure about the performance though never read anywhere saying that one is better than the other. From what I've read, no-one has complained about either of them so its up to your budget i guess

@khizr23 why did you sell? I am either considering getting this or the RR Racing tune + tube.
Seems people either go one way or the other.
From what I have read, you don't get a bump in HP with the CAI, unless you change out the headers, as well.
I think you only get about a 10 HP bump with the tune only:
