Injen seems to be favorite. I have Injen CAI on mine and love it. it is mostly noticed @ 4000 and up. most do about the same.

i have a fujita. i've noticed that it was cheaper than the injen and performed just as good. will be getting rid of it in a couple of months though to make room for the turbocharger. i will also be getting rid of the header also.

injen is dyno proven to be the best intake for the tc and can be converted from short ram to cold air! i love mine in black and only took about 2 hours to instal but if i had read the instructions then you could prob do it in 1.5 hours

CEL issues and codes. They are known for 07-08 model, doing a search will pop up a lot of issues. You should be fine with a previous model before 07.

I have the Injen in as a SRI and couldn't be happier. My friend has hers in as a CAI and she couldn't be happier. So Injen in either configuration and I'm sure you won't be happier!

Wow it took you 2 hours to install?! It took me half an hour. Fugita FTW!
