This is mostly with the short ram intakes...They produce little to negative power in comparision to stock...The Stillen and Injen CAI (LONGTUBES) show and prove better gains throughout the powerband over the stock boxes...from what I've read and reserached the Stillen seem to be superior over the Injens as far as HP is concerned...
The only downfall that I've seen with the Stillen's is during earlier installs of the product, a lot of people encountered problems with the intake rubbing up on the A/C lines causing damage...If installed correctly, then you won't have any problems with this...Also like mentioned if you don't want to cut, then the Stillen isn't for you...I don't see it as a big deal..the area that you have to cut isn't exposed, and can't bee seen...Also it's just a slight cut to get the intake pipes in...Not loke you gotta put a huge hole or anything.
