I found that the AFE system is best for hp gains on mine, bigger filter and inlet tube= more air had to run a tuner though to compensate for massive air changes, diablo tuner works greatAFE.comdiablosport.comCheck it out!

K&N is a better brand in my opinion. You may spend more but it's worth it. Either way, you need to actually look at them and see which one has less severe bends. That's one of the biggest reasons for getting a CAI or short ram. The less restrictive the piping, the more air, the more HP.

K&N is a better tested brand as far as R&D goes. I'm not real sure though, I don't play with the little toy cars.

You can't go wrong with a K&N

K&N offers a good product but under intense heat and maximum air flow AEM offers 120% flow as K&N only offers 105-110 for the b18 and b16 motors. my opinion, AEM V2. hands down. another bonus is aem uses a harder composition aluminum that is thinner so it cools faster and offers immediate and longer lasting cooler air. ive allways looked to AEM first and ive never been anything but pleased.
