Intake help

hello
i have a 2k SE auto
i want to install a after market intake, but dont know which brand should I go with?
people told me Stillen is very good, but also very pricy.
i went to that frakencar website, and their intake also seems very nice. If you have a intake or advice, please let me know. thank you

i would vote for frankencar. i bought my intake from berk technology, which is non-existent anymore but i got the mid pipe from frankencar. its a great product at a reasonable price.

I went with the INJEN wai. It is not a true cold air intake, but I am satisfied with it. I intend to wrap it so that it stays colder, in addition to cutting a hole in the splash guard below and to the right of it and put in some ducting so that it gets cooler air (especially in the summer months).

Apexi. 4 more hp over K&N and you don't have to worry about the oil ruining your MAF.
