Intakes as with other bolt on mods provide little gain on this car. if you don't have them yet your money would be better spent on sway bars. But If it is an Intake you want the Racing Beat has a clean OEM look. The AEM (aka Mazdaspeed) also seems to be popular.

You could spend $300+ on an intake that does nothing, or put the money toward a set of sway bars or a nitrous setup or lighter wheels or just about anything that will actually do something.

How can you call yourself Streetking if you don't have a sweet intake?

Intake is a cosmetic mod (at most get the K&N drop in). Put the extra $ into Short Shifter or suspension (springs)
