people will tell you to go with Drop-ins + PMTs or Stillen G3s/Takeda cold air intakes(same filter location, different name)

honestly you cant really go wrong with any intake seeing as its just a pipe and filter

if you ask me though, the best intake is one you didnt pay for XD

I have the takedas and I love them. Almost the exact same thing as G3s but I got them for a great price. Contact Juan esteves from import dynamics. Great customer service and awesome price.

I have been very happy with AAM Competition ones. A good alternative to the G3's.

Be sure to wrap your AC lines with the G3's.
