Probably the most asked question on the board...idk which are the cheapest out there but Roto-Fab and Cold Air Inductions are the most popular and are going to be the majority of the answers you get. Also check out Jannetty's test thread.

The best bang for your buck intake is the Volant. $137 shipped compared to all the others that start at $340.
That's what i got.

You should'nt have asked that question.

Personnaly I went for G5CR but there are some critics about the missing heat sheild. I'll see into that later when it will be installed, I don't like the idea closing such a big filter in a small box!!!!!

Because a big engine bay filled with HOT air, going straight into your intake is so much better?

For the OP.

There really are eleventybillion threads on this.

These kinds of threads tend to turn into a survey of what the people on the forum at the moment have on their car. Here is a good article from our blog that discusses the pros/cons of many of the intake systems available for these cars. It should provide you with enough information to make an educated decision about which system is best for your application. Feel free to hit me up if you have any questions.

We would be happy to answer any questions you have. There are many individuals and reputable shops that have dyno tested our intake, please take the time to research many of them when making your decision.
We offer many options-dry or oil filter, custom air box colors, hose color choices as well as black, carbon fiber finish or polished stainless steel inlet elbow.
