So you're looking to switch intakes purely for the sound, eh? Well, I'd have to say I like the sound of the JWT the most, closely followed by that of Stillen and Fujita.

HKS doesn't filter or flow well... i'd stick w/the JWT and just get a new filter, if sounds what ur interested in. but out of HKS & Nismo, i say Nismo hands down.

Intake Options....?

I'm not a fan of the HKS filter! The best looking intake I've ever seen was
the AMUSE with the Blitz filter from rarejdm.com. So you have another option, check it out....

I have the NISMO CAI, I don't think it adds any HP, but it sure sounds sweet!

thanks for the feedback guys, I know JWT sounds great, but I just cant stand the way it looks..lol...I like the sound/look of the nismo the most..although AMUSE pipe is freaking sexy.. but I dont know if its worth spend that much on just a damn JDM pipe..so yeah..and I dont even know where can I get that Blitz filter, if theres anyone selling those i will take it off ur hands NOW...but i doubt it..lol

I had fujita and it was extremely loud... I had to take it off and sell it when I got my exhaust because

1. I couldn't hear my exhaust by itself past 4K rpm

2. The exhaust and the intake didn't complement each other in sound.

Fujita is the best intake I've ever had for any car sound wise.. The sound it makes on a cold engine is insane!
