I have a Moroso which i believe is about the same quality as K&N for a little cheaper. The slp is the most expensive, but is also the best. I'm upgrading to a slp sometime soon.

intake is intake as long as it gets air from the right place.

Get a quality filter and the cheapest tubing...$300 for an intake is ridiculous

basically, its all about flow, and if the motor is stock, it dont matter what filter you throw on, itll be about the same. dont believe the ads that say another 53 hp, cause it aint true, but slp is best, and it is a good investment when you start doing other things to a car

I heard that RAM air isn't that great, is this true? Iimagine it wont be as good as a good cold air intake from a dead stop, but what about45MPH? 65?compared to SLP's cold air intake? is there only one RAM air intake system?

Ramair is only functionally "ramming" air at 100+ mph, so in street applications it's useless.
