I got the stock one ported and polished by Roy and it worked awesome. I can not comment on others as I have only used this one and the stock. Nice gains fron Roys work though!

If you're talking about a cold air intake...JLT, C&L, K&N, Steeda are all good. Any difference betwee them isn't noticable by seat of the pants and a tune is usually needed to see the full results. IMO, unless you plan on futher mods with a dyno/custom tune save your $ and get a K&N filter.

yea i was talking CAI sorry, but i was thinking about getting the JTL because i've heard good things but my buddy was trying to convince me to go with the BBK thats what i had on my GT

I have the steeda, and it works pretty good...I would assume air coming in is pretty much maximized from the factory (over the gt) other than a filter, polishing which someone mentioned, doubt you could get much better??

Didn't know BBK made one. Just get one that keeps the shaker functional so you don't have to answer "no" to the hundred people who'll ask you "does that really work?" JLT, Steeda, C&L...just pick the one you like the looks of, they all do the same.

alright thanks

JLT makes a good pipe and C&L too...i personally think the JLT RAI looks better than the C&L pipe
