Cold Air is the only way to go. The Front mount intake is a gimmick and besides that since it looks kinda like a intercooler everybody will whore you calling rice.

The WAI will give a little bit of a gain but not as much as a Cold Air so I say go with Cold Air.

I went warm air only because it was cheaper at the time. Cold Air will give you more low end off the line.

thanx for the reply guys, i didnt think the front mounted one would make that much of a difference, jus curious, i jus wanted the best performer, any suggestions on brands, i know of most of the brands, but dont know which is best, i assume theres not much difference in any of them

I like the AEM intakes but Injen, Place Racing, and Hotshot are also good.
