I personally don't like the AEM closed box intakes, although many people do have them.

I'd go with the ETS intake, it's cheaper too

I think you should do some research before you buy an intake. Do you like it loud? Do you want to hear you diverter valve? If yes then go with an intake like ETS. If you like it quiet, I'd go with a Cobb, Perrin or depo racing silicone intake tube and a drop in filter. No need to upgrade the stock diverter valve now.

The TurboSmart Dual Port we sell on our site is great, we run it on our car. It comes with everything to run it full recirc, VTA, or 50/50 so it covers everything.

I was looking at the k&N kit since it comes with the upper charge pipe as well, and a box fed from the stock air ram.

OP made reference to cold air intake in 1st post. He does own a GSR so his options for true CAI are more numerous/easier than MR crowd.

OP, you have so many choices for cold air with GSR, i'm jelly 'bout that lol but here are some ideas.

These work like the stock in terms of pulling cold air through the top duct facing out the front of the hood:

Gruppe M
Password JDM
ARC Box

These intakes run down into the front driver side wheel arch - think behind the fog light:

AGP CAI V2
AMS CAI
HKS (forgot the model name sorry)

But there are far more than just these. Let us know and post some pics of what you end up getting.
