why buy name brand?
for the name? you get the same amount of HP from all intakes. its the filter that gives the power.

No way. Much R&D goes into the tubing design. Granted its not going to make a HUGE difference, but why not get the most gain you can?

If you want a cia, then get an intercooler cia. I think that would be pretty cool for a n/a application.
I'd buy a aem intake though.

Ok, intakes are intakes, there are no intakes that are Vastly superior to other brands - as long as the pipe is metal and the filter will not fall apart immediately, then buy it. IMO< intakes are Ghey |

well i got Ebay intake and i installed and it works just fine. i have that loud ass roar now to. i love the purr my motor makes. my car also picks up a lot faster.
we compared my intake tube to a injen tech tube and the only difference we could tell me the injen badge and the color. the inside of the tube was smooth and polished. the intake also came with a KN filter.
