Should i go with the K&N on Stillen at 268$ shipped or get the Stillen intake at $225.. or should i go with another brand? Ive looked around and a lotta people have Takeda's as well... Im looking for a nice throaty sound to go with my Nismo exhaust and im expecting the performance on them all to be about the same, would that be a fair assumption? Thanks for the input..

I like the heat shield on K&N. It's the one I intend to buy, eventually. The shields on Stillen and Injen and all those look like you're going to be losing a lot more power, especially when the weather's warm.

What about the AEM? I'm looking for an intake as well, and I want to know if it's any good. The K&N looks good, but its just soo damn expensive! The takeda and injem look kinda ricey to me...

nevermind, i got my facts wrong. I want the AEM because it has all the parts, such as a bigger pipe for the outside air to come in, but the K&N is only a little cheaper. What are the cheapest you can find for a 3.5?
