I have that one on my car and it flows well with the exhaust. I hate how the head looks, but performance is good. It sounds good at woot!

I agree! ^^But, if you HAVE to buy an intake, you should check out a cosmo intake, they are cheap and they function well. OR you could just make DIY intake for way cheaper and have money left for more mods! :smt023 :smt023

if you have a MAP sensor...

Pretty sure cosmo also makes a CAI, Weapon-R doesnt i think there pretty cool looking and alot cheaper than a AEM or Injen one but for a short ram id just do the ebay intake.

the key to performance is good flow and cold air. A down side to CAI is that the filter is closer the ground and elements sucking in more dirt and debri. I would go with SRI, it runs close enough to the front that it will get cold air and the filter will stay clean longer.... In the end, do what you want!

that makes sense about being by the tire getting stuff in it. i think i will go for the sri. thanks for the advice!

you already have a CAI stock, get the SRI if you really have to but at least pipe the old grille scoop thing back into it to get some ambient air flowing into it.

I have one and when I bought it, it was the first real performance piece of my car so it was worth it. Now I think I would have gone with the ebay intake, fit it to go into the stock intake box and put a K&N filter in it and then mod it to get air straight out of the fender like a CAI.

yeah dude get it I have the same one and it works and flows very good.
the only negative is that the head looks weird and is ugly lol.
