try running a search noth things have been discussed several times, but most true cold air intakes will give you the same results so whatever brand you go with is fine. as far as "chips" go i personally wouldnt waste money on one or any handheld youll get the most bang for your buck from a custom dyno tune or custom pcm tune, but like i said ealier just run a quick search do some research and decide whats gonna be best for you.

I've been happy with my K&N FIPK intake. I also have a custom PCM tune from Wait4Me performance.

I'm happy with the K&N too but, the only problem is that if you want to use a throttle body spacer you won't be able to use it with this brand.

TB spacers are just noise makers are our engines anyway.

I believe you can use the Air Aid Intake with their spacer. For a programmer Hyper Techs are nice but the best would be a tune with PCM 4 Less or Wait 4 Me

you can use the k&n Cold air intake with a throttle body spacer but its not worth the 45 mins involved in popping the tb off.
