sounds terrific when hitting 4k on the rpms, which is the result of the lead foot disease. You'll always find yourself smashing the gas to hear it. :tongue:... which also leads to bad mpg. sounds normal when driving casually though.

I'm looking at the takeda stage 2 intake. I was also looking at the k&n,injen, etc. What would you guys recommend? I want it to give my car a nice sound and significant power, but not sound riced. Any input or suggestions is appreciated

If you want power, then your only option is a PRL CAI.

Is the PRL CAI a short ram or a Cold air?

WHATS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ALL OF THEM? IVE NEVER HEARD OF THE PRL INTAKE SYSTEM

The PRL CAI will make more power. The rest will make some noise and make no difference on power...or even lose power over stock. However, there can be some benefit in the realm of improved throttle response.

Power comes at a price. At best, you will be paying just to add some sound to your car by going with the Takeda. At worst, you will lose power. What would you rather pay for? Sound? Less power? More power?
