That's actually a good point that, not living in CA, had momentarily slipped my mind... Joe Z won't pass emissions in CA, the F-sport will. (assuming your inspection place notices the intake tube isn't stock and thinks to check for a CARB number)... that'd be the only good reason I can think of to pay double for the F-sport vs. a Joe Z with filter.

What happened to the Injen cold air intake which was supposed to have come out for the 350?


I want to get CAI, because I live in florida, and any short ram intake would be sucking dead engine heat 80% of the time. What other cold air intakes are available?

There are 0 true cold air intakes for the car.

The stock system is about as close as you'll get, throw a Joe Z pipe on that and call it good. Maximum intake gain (5 hp) for just over $100... (or the F-sport which is about the same item if you need to pass a CA inspection)

Pretty sure injen does make an intake for the 2IS...it's just a pipe with a big cone filter on it and it just costs more and makes more noise (which is true for just about every intake compared to the Joe Z)
