Default Air Intake ideas???
So i'm thinking about changing my intake but i dont really know which one i want to buy anymore. Please give me some ideas on what you guys are running and what's the better option for the price.
I am using fujita at the moment but i dont really know it anymore.

Joe Z is the best bang for your buck.

If you don't care for an extra 5hp and just want a sexy sounding intake, I'd say get injen or the AFE stage2 intake. Both sound amazing. Then again, I did like the joeZ when I had it... Just too quiet for my taste

I have an injen and it's nice looking. Just curious as to why you want a new intake if you already have one?

Honestly, it depends on what you want out of the intake. Do you want a loud SRI? Or do you prefer a more oem style of intake?

Why do you want another intake? Are you bored of it? Do you want louder? Since you already have a SRI, I would suggest keeping it. The only other intakes that are louder are the Takeda/AFE or K&N.

I had the F-sport intake at first but wanted a louder option so I bought the Takeda, and paid about $200 for it.

Cut a hole behind the passenger headlight, extend your Fujita piping and run a true CAI !!!
Im going to mess around with this since my S/C is decommissioned.
