Ebay CAI question - please help.

Which CAI's on Ebay are PR knockoffs and which are Injen knockoffs? Someone once mentioned this but it was a while ago and I forgot. I think it had to do with the midpipe being straight or curved. Please help me. Thanks.

This is exactly what mine looks like(i think they send random color "rubber connectors" mine were exactly what I wanted, RED. I've also since replaced the filter.

ok, try this,
below is the link to the injen styly cai. it is not really cold air induced because the intake will sit right between the radiator fan and the engine. Not recommended buying:

and this one is the placeracing:

this one, is the real cai (place racing style). it requires you to drill a three inch diameter hole right below the fuselink between the battery and the fender wall. you will have some technical difficulties doing this, but this setup induces the real cold air from the fender volume. but word is: you'll loss some hi end power with this setup. i got this one and i loved it. rpm revs up much quicker in 1st and 2nd gear.

thanks guys for the help.

cyu1: did YOU lose high end power? are you manual or auto?

isn't there a template around here somewhere that helps you with cutting the hole?
