AEM and injen are pretty much the intake leaders on the market.

I have had both cold and short ram intakes and I really didnt notice a difference in daily driving. However the cold air intake is better if you care about getting all the HP you can. But any way you go, its better than stock.

If you really want power (or at least for an intake) check out the v2. I have it and love it.

get a AEM CAI and get a air bypass valve so if it does suck up water it will stop the water from going into your motor.

A bypass completly cancels out any gains from the cai

well remmy said it cancels out any gains from the CAI so he is saying it is just for looks.

Thing is, most of the time you are moving fast enough that the air doesn't really get heated much in the engine bay anyways, the difference is only on the dyno because you are stationary.

I run an AEM short ram, both for the safety factor, as well as the fact that it sounds better....
