wow thanx for the pics, so i should get both right? cause i see ppl talking about cold air intake and not the short ram intake, but yoll got both?

Don't get both, unless you are planning on switching them once in a while. I would go with a short ram intake if i were you, cold air intakes are more expensive, and they usually dont even produce more power than short ram's. The short ram is a lot better bang for your buck.

Also, don't buy a certain brand just because they say it'll give you 15 horsepower, thats bull, all intakes are similar.

it all depends on you. i have both because i take off the cai during the winter. and i do believe the coldair is better, no point in halfassing it just because the shortram is cheaper. if youre gonna do it at all, do it right. and you dont need to spend alot to get a coldair intake. i got one for $70, and it comes with a carb sticker, meaning its 50 states legal, just like the $200+ aem intakes.

i got my AEM cold air for $100 brand new in the box, but thats cuz i have friends that own shops...so if anyone wants parts for cheap let me know, my AIM is "shavedupaccord" without the ". Just like my DC headers, i got those for $200.

wow, thats a pretty good deal. but even still, i saved $30 over that. thats like getting free gas. and it wasnt a hookup either.

lol true, gas is expensive
