AMS = almost 600
ETS = 275.

For the AMS that you saw that was almost $600, that's for the full CAI. I believe you can find their SRI for $330 something... Still more than the ETS though.

with ETS you won't be disappointed. First mod I did and loved it with my stock exhaust. You really hear the spool and blow off very nicely and so will people on the street. Then I installed my greddy Ti-C and I still hear the bugger while my decibels go through the roof

So the day is almost here, and I still cant decide what I want to order.

Options:
1.) Cobb AP + ETS Intake (theres really nothing else in my budget that I would see as beneficial ordering with this)
2.) ETS Intake + ETS Intercooler Kit
3.) ETS Intake + Appearance mods I posted on the first page

Either way, first mod is scheduled for tomorrow morning, made an appt to get my windows tinted tomorrow

Acting under the impression that when you say ETS Intercooler kit you mean the FMIC and both UICP and LICP I'd go with option 2 hands down! If the kit does not include pipes I'd go with option 3.

Happy modding!!!

Yeah ETS has an awesome kit that comes with both upper and lower charge pipes, intercooler, all mounting hardware, couplers and t-bolt clamps to replace those **** screw gear. I think it was like 940?

#1 for sure. If you get an intake, you should have supporting tune with it.

I have completely revamped my thoughts on the outside of the car.

I just got the windows tinted, and i will never touch anything on the outside now besides wheels and drop springs.

Which will be my purchase next month probably as it looks like I'll be needing new tires soon.

18x9.5 Work CR Kai's with 265/25/18 Bridgestone Potenzas.

Yeah I have the ETS intake and hoses. Only thing I heard bad is the K&N air filter does not too well with the MAF sensor because of oil that is released from the filter. I have not had any problems with mine what-so-ever, but to play it safe I spray my MAF sensor every now and than with MAF sensor cleaner found at Advance Auto or Autozone. No biggie. Good luck.
