hey i was looking around for an intake for my 08 a/c 6spd 2.5 and noticed that there are three so far. The injen ,fujita and weapon I havnt heard much about the fujita or weapon and i’ve heard both good and bad about the injen. From ur guys’ opinion which do u think is overall better? (Sound, mpg, hp,etc.)? oh yea also i was wondering if they were both CAI cuz i heard that they might be WAI?

all 3 of the intakes are WAI Short Ram. The filter sits directly where your factory airbox is sitting now. i personally have the injen i absolutely love how it sounds.

most people on here have the injen, its more money and your paying for the heatshield which in my opinion doesnt do too much....i have the fujita and absolutely love it. it ran me 150 shipped. Stillen also has a new intake check their website.

yea im gathering that a lot of people have the injen. sound wise ive heard good of both injen and fujita. really havnt heard much of a power difference though. i guess its more of personal preferance and pricing. unless the new stillen one out has more balls or sound to it. guess we shall see soon enough.

I went with the Fujita, cheaper, and the MAF sensor is located on the side rather than on the top of the piping like the Injen. Some people complained about the MAF on the Injen rubbing against the hood when closed.

I got my Injen 3 weeks ago and the MAF sensor has been relocated. It now sits between 10 and 11 o'clock insted of high noon where it use to sit.

when i ordered my fujita it was backordered for 3 weeks. when i got it, it was missing mounting hardware for the isolation damper, the throttle body side clamp was too big (had to use my own), and the silver (main) tube looked like it was a returned item. it was all scratched up, dings and rub/scuff marks all over, and the pcv tube was filthy inside with oil residue and gunk. I emailed fujita and they are denying it was used, but I know what I see... unless they have the sloppiest production line in the world where clumsy cumputer-controlled robotic arms be droppin **** all over the place, this is DEFINITELY USED. So I have a cobbed- install on a used intake....NOT HAPPY>>>>>>>should have spent the $$$ on injen.... just a thought

Where did you buy from? Fujita has this new Campionship series intake that is powdercoated Bronze. It looks pretty hot, but I have not seen it online anywhere.

i dunno, i think i may go with the stillen myself. there cant be that much of a power gain difference between the ones out now, and if the heatsheild doesnt do much...then why pay for it? maybe ill order the stillen next week
