SC Cold air intake?

I've been shopping around for a cold air intake for a little HP boost and also a good sound, I've seen mostly the injen, K&N typhoon, and AEM intakes. Can anyone shed some light on which intake is better?

It's all subjective! AEM or RB in my opinion.
HP.....nada...........maybe 3hp at best. Sound only and maybe some cooling!

Use the "advanced search" button, there are a million and one threads on this subject.


And since you are new...................might wanna read through these four threads(at least the first few posts) to avoid cluttering up the forum with potentially more useless threads.

His post was edited. The original may have been much more "colorful." Not that he's throwing troll treats; it's just more candy coated.

Cold air intake by itself: not much gains, just noise.

Cold air intake and custom tune (Cobb AccessPORT): decent gain and noise.
