High Flow and Cold Air Intake... Which one or both?

I am looking into buying a Injen Cold Air Intake and a Stillen High Flow Intake. Are they the same thing? Can you use both of them? Is one better than the other? Please help! Thanks!

I think you can have both....Cuz I heard of people with INJEN intakes swapping them out with other name brand filters (Apex-i, K&N)...so the stillen might fit as well since it's a K&N....

yeah the question is will the filter be to big for the area it has to sit in, you will basically be running the injen hot air intake with a stillen filter. i like the idea of the larger filter , again just need to see if there is enough room. the injen filter is a small, which isnt bad. im using a small k&n filter with my frankencar setup and love it.

The Injen is the worst intake out there for your car, expecially if your car has an automatic transmission.

The Stillen intake ................ your simply paying for the name.

Your best bet, keep the stock system and keep the air filter pannel clean.
