HKS Suction intake OR Injen intkae upper+lower IC pipes

I have the HKS on right now. Should I keep it or change to Injen since I get to change my lower ic pipe????

The HKS filters fairly poorly, and it's not a bad idea to use a better element. The Injen kit will do little for performance.

Change it out to the Injen one. The HKS intake increases the intake temperature and is made poorly for our cars. The Injen, Fujita, AEM, ETS, etc, those are alottt better than the HKS one.

AEM is the one i have and it's doing amazing and well better than the HKS.

Nope, comes with the intake as well.

OR if you can get each part separately, but i don't exactly know if you can do that.

Thats what I meant. The OP says he would get to change the lower IC piping too. I had the injen on my VIII, and it was just intake and upper IC. I bought my lower from AMS

Thanks guys
I really think my HKS is not really performing well.
I feel the injen + upper and lower piping will make my 4G breathe better
anyone agrees??
Or should I just get an aftermarket lower piping??
