Exclamation What's a good intake?

What intake do you guys suggest? I'm debating between AEM, Injen, and HKS. I'm not quite sure what to get. I currently have an HKS SSQV BOV and I was wondering which would amplify the sound best and make my engine sound meaner.

i have the Injen with the stock BOV ...........sounds great i can really here the turbo spool up and the BOV is really loud. Took about 2 to 3 hours to install. I just got the Dynoflash for the Injen Intake. I guessing i got about 20 or 30 WHP with the Fireball TM Flash and the Injen intake. My car is going on the dyno on the 13th so I will let you know.

I heard stock is good. You'll loose low end when getting an exhaust and sometimes you'll loose WHP when installing an aftermarket intake and dynoing it.

Tha'ts what i heard from people.

go with injen or hks... i've had nothing but good experiences with Injen's personally, and it's what i have on my evo now... utmost quality... (minus the elbow at the tb, since i got the wrong hose packed in my kit for some reason, and didn't get the replacement after i faxed them my order sheet and missing part........maybe it's just my fax...)

HKS RS SUCTION is dyno proven 8-11 whp increase...Depending on supporting MODS..

DynoFlash has had great results with this intake!!!

With any intake make sure you get a reflash or other solution because it will not run correctly if you just slap it on...

I picked up 9 whp on a AWD Mustang dyno after I added my HKS RS intake. I put down 233 whp with a intake, downpipe, and cat back. That was before I got the reflash for the intake as well. I haven't dynoed it since thee reflash though.
