Question HKS, BILTZ n K&N Intake????

HKS $599 something but is really good buz there is no gap around the pipe.

BILTZ $435 lowest I saw, but there aren't any staple bar to center hold the filter which HKS has.

K&N typhoon $210 lowest I saw in ebay, heard they came out but read some review there are still some gap around the piple and the hot air can sneak in.

My question is I can't wait to install the intake now, I love HKS but the spec mention "FOR 6 SPEED only", should I risk it?

Thank you for your comment in advance!

If you want more noise, then any of these intakes will provide that.

If you want noticeably more power, then none of these intakes will provide that. Some of them will provide less power rather than more, at best you might find 4 or 5 hp from something like the Racing Beat - and again, that little of a power increase won't be noticeable.
