Default Automatic or Manual Intake

Can anyone tell me if it matters what kind of air intake you should buy for a automatic vs. amanual transmission, if they make the difference.

nah i am pretty sure it doesnt matter at all. all a cold air/SRI is is a tube connected to a snazzy filter.

It actually does matter. A/T (7th gen) cannot use a CAI.

wow i did not know that at all! could you explain why though cause i thought that the CAI went straight to the throttlebody to the intake manifold. is something in the way where the cai runs?

i belive the differences are because of mounting points for the tube supports that are only available on the m/t
