Intake opinions

OK I know there are a decent amount of different manufacturers out there that make intakes but hands down which one is the best out there, or the best for your buck!!!!

thank you for the 411!

I use an Apexi Power intake.

There was a test between Japanese intake awhile back on a skyline I think. But over all the Apexi did better than the other which were the HKS, Blitz and another.

Best for your buck... my opinion is you get what you pay for.

I didn't like having an intake on my car, way to much surge and bucking (yes it was tuned). I went back to the stock airbox and I'm much happier. There's guys on here making big power with the stock airbox, its actually a good design.

slvrr- I think lexat20 was spot on, no need to clog up the thread with childish remarks. The OP asked a question to which there is no definite answer, plain and simple.

open element intakes are grossly overrated.

Yeah, GOD dont you know Stoopid newbie, jeez.

Naw J/K. I have an Agency power= cheap and good.

My boy has an apexi which is really nice

ETS has a really nice one and its affordable.

Once you slap on all your goodies make sure you get a good tune to extract the all those extra ponies,

or you could do a drop-in.
