I heard Injen was a really good product. i heard on here somewhere that Injen will add up to 11 horses to an R18.

i'm in the process of ordering the AEM CAI.

i dunno, i just like AEM better, i can give you a link to an ebay site where they are selling it for 215 bucks plus 30 for shipping if you'd like.

good luck

That number is not verified. I went with Injen. I didn't have a reason, I think it was the only one out at the time. Plus I got it for $195 which beats the pants off the competitors. Got it at autoanything.com. At the time it was listed as a SRI, but it was a CAI as verified by multiple others. Fujita, AEM are other brands that are probably just as good.

Here you go. Again, it says SRI but it's the CAI. Plus enter the code BLOWOUT and get 10% off.

AEM is definitly a good choice in my opinion. Love mine. I have one on my truck too. The dry flow filter is definitly the way to go. Shouldn't void any warranty either seeings how you do not have to oil it. Mine works great.
