Stillen for me
The AEM intake can be fitted with a bypass valve, which prevents hydro-lock even if you drive into a foot of water. The problem with the Stillen unit is you have to dremel out a portion of your front radiator support. Should you remove too much, then the fitment may be loose. Also, I think you have to bend back your horn bracket. The AEM intake may require minor cutting to be made as well.

My personal preference is for bolt-on/bolt-off mods, which leaves the Injen.
