I have ROTO fab but I believe the CAI puts out slightly better number. You may get another 3 horses with it based on the dyno results I have seen. I bought the ROTO fab because it is just as good and is compatible with the race scoop, as is the CAI.
But I think the ROTO fab looks better under the hood.

Buy for looks, I think they all are close in power. I bought a roto-fab because of the good reviews, quality and the awesome radiator cover that matches.

Cold Air Inductions ftw. Not just another pretty face, lots of features and great fit. Yeah, it does look good too!

ok so cai and scoop, final question is about the washer fluid reservoir i understand that there is a relocation bottle that you can get but since i have bought my car i have never used the fluid once and never will its pretty much a nice day or weekend car. If i just remove the bottle and disconnect it will i constantly get a low washer fluid or some type of alert on the dic? and is there anyway to make this go away either i do not need any washer fluid or the bottle and heck removing any extra liquid saves weight right??

Roto should make a lid that may be where they are lacking that 3-5 hp that other companies get

Roto-Fab on mine and I'm throwing down 631hp at the wheels. Dont think 2 or 3 hp will make a fifference for me.
