Best bang for your buck would probably be Perrin inlet hose + drop in filter (my setup) or the FA20Club CAI. Both will cost you about 250 bucks.

Chen, do you have a link to buy the intake system of yours?

Oh. That makes more sense to me now. I was confusing when I saw some intake has 2 and some has 3.

Thank you for your advice. And I wait for your to post the links as well.

The first item is if you keep your stock air box. The second item is the replacement for the hose between your air box and the engine. It also removes the noise generator hose as Perrin's doesn't have it. The third item would replace your stock air box and would require the front bumper to be removed. I have the 2nd and 3rd items. Some people that can't afford that much $ are doing either just the first or the first and second items. The best sound and performace when giving it full throttle will be with the second and third items.

And if you go to their store they will sell the 2nd and 3rd items for $400 instead of $463 that their website says.

Hi, Stocksnail. I want to know if the second item (inlet hose), does it has 2 output or 3 output. the picture only shows one side of it, I couldn't see the back of it.

If it doesn't has the 3rd output, what should I do with the exist hose that connect to my stock intake?

Ohh ok. So which one saves me from removing the bumper?

Especially considering the noise it was making. Now....well now it's just fun to get it up there. The power and the "True sound" go hand in hand.

You should also buy the Perrin crank pulley too. Revs are quicker.

Is the afe DRY S a good intake to buy?

Intakes are all personal preference. All will have gains. Depends on what kind of sound your looking for and how much stress you want to put on the motor.

I think I will as well. Waiting to buy the complete exhaust including header first. I think I will go with Perrin for the tune.

Perrin has a base tune according to what I'm aware of. If you go to pre. I believe that's what nick is doing. And they will tune your car with your mods for optimum performance.

Chen, question I don't understand. After I install the intake system, do I need to tune the car???? I just ordered the AFE Takeda DRY S intake. should be here next week or so.

Tunes arent required. But if you do get tuned it helps maximize the performance of the intake. I wouldnt suggest getting a tune for just am intake tho. Tunes can be very expensive if you go that route. My recommendation, get all your bolt ons first than tune. Ie exhaust, intake, headers and maybe turbo if that's in your budget. I'm currently untuned with a headerback exhaust and intake. I'm waiting for at least headers before I decided to tune.
