However, the downside to a ram intake is that if you do go this route you will need a heat shield, which from my experience is not the easiest thing to fabricate.
I would recommend teh Cosmos CAI, it sells for about $160 and is 3.5" in diameter. This diameter will not help because your HFM and TB is still 3" but if you ever choose to upgrade your HFM to the euro (540) 3.5" and/or wide throttle body you could definately take advantage of this.
EDIT: see this thread for more options and information |
I use the Cosmos CAI as well.
