^ see what i mean? A search will definitely give best answers... R2C isn't the best.

I kid. I kid. Sorry guys, just really happy that it's Friday! Whoo... way too long of a week at work.

Op, back on topic, fwiw, here are some pics and vids of my SRI, and a dyno run with just the SRI.

Ppl will always claim whatever they have is the "best" out there. lol
I am guilty of doing that too sometimes.

Just do some searching around the forum. Most of the 2nd gen guys go with R2C, Injen, Stillen, and Takeda for the short ram intake option. I personally like the Injen and the Takeda. Don't expect any crazy gains from your intake especially a short ram since the OEM system is pretty efficient as is.

hahaha. eager to hear your opinions on the Stillen Gen 3.

Ive had just about every short ram out there including injen and r2c. My final choice for performance...HPS tubes. For looks and sound....R2C. Intakes are just not need on this car. Catback exhaust will yield more noticeable results.
