For all you know, I may know EXACTLY the best intake for your NA, but you asked Rizz, so fine. I guess my opinion isn't good enough. Everyone loves Rizz SOOOOO much! He's so great! WHOP-DEE-DOO!!!!! jk...don't rule out jwt and injen systems. I'm not so sure how the injen performs, but it looks great. and you can't go wrong with a jwt.

I just noticed that I never replied to this.

It's basically all the same, for the most part. The filter goes in the same place, is installed the same way, and most use the K&N standard type paper filter. I'd suggest to stay away from the foam filters though. Foam doesn't clean nearly as well as the paper filters and I personally don't think that they flow as well either.

As far as ebay goes. I've ordered filters through them, no prob. Just make sure that whoever you buy from has a good long history.

A lot of people have bought the Injen system off of ebay...heck, it's the cheapest there and it's a name brand and its new in the box. Like Rizz said make sure to look at their feedback and make sure that checks out ok. It's also good to look around on the forums (like you are now) to see if anyone else has bought a certain intake off ebay and maybe from the some guy/girl. Good luck.

i think emo should join you rizz in moderating a little bit. i mean the guy is on all the time, and he's got a point this should be moved to performance. he's one of the ppl who puts out a lot of posts a day. Emo for moderator!!! not that u guys are doing a bad job, it would just take some load off your back

Thanks zwrecker...moderating...hmmm I dunno. It took Rizz like 800 something posts to become a moderator...that and a lot of knowledge.

i agree Rizz knows his stuff, there is no doubt about that, and i didn't say you should replace him. you could be like a junior moderator or something, and you do look stuff up for ppl online, and you always help out+ you are just a few hundred posts away from 800

I agree. TT.net has a lot of info on it, but the sarcasm and stuff has gotten out of hand!

Im playing catch up a bit here....

First, no this shouldn't be moved to performance. It started out as a general "what should I get?" question. It had nothing to do with performance or installation.
2nd, It's not up to me as to who gets to moderate or not. I was chosen and I gladly accepted. If anyone'd like to volunteer it's up to the Administrators.
3rd, I agree with the tt.net statements. Furthermore, I enjoy this format better than theirs. I think it's better for sharing information and pictures.

Now that I read back on this thread, it kinda ocurred to me to wonder if emo might be a little jealous. J/K
I wouldn't worry too much about it emo. I'm just a slightly larger fish in a small pond.

What's up with you and constantly accusing me of being jealous? You know what they say about those who randomly accuse others of a specific thing...trying to take the attention off of your jealousy? And you're getting cocky! ..a slightly bigger fish in a small pond?? WOW! HAHA...see Rizz, I can deal it right back...maybe you're not so oversized after all...
