dont sweat injen, i have a CAI and it is fantabulos! If you get the short ram air you could always go with the carbon hood duct that R///R makes. Thats what i would have done if i had short ram air.

hobie, short ram will about the same as cai when your moving but it will make a tiny bit of a diffrence when you moving from a stop because of heat soak, so if you were racing another lancer with a short ram and you had a cai you might get just a little bit more power with a cai from takeoff to like 35mph, i know its just a tiny amount but why not, and also i think the cai looks cooler and the engine compartment looks a little cleaner without a big filter in there.
I had an Injen CAI for about 8 mos. For 4 I've run a short ram. The difference is negligable if at all noticable. I'm running a cone filter right off a MAS adapter plate and heat soak hasn't caused any lag or any decrease in performance. The only significant difference I've noticed is the sound.

I went with the RMR intake cuz the heat shield looks functional. Better to have something than nothing, right?
