The one piece designs eliminates the chance of air escape too!!

I also say go with Fujita or the AEM CAI...

Both are about same price, and both are one piece

Oh and with guys getting rid of the Injen and getting the Fujita...

But to be different get the AEM and me and you will be like the only dudes with it hahahahhaa

JImmy, nice pics man. Did you ended up installing that little filter box you were talking about. I myself am planning on getting the INJEN intake by next month. After reading this post, and Chernmax's advice i guess it's up to you which intake your prefer. Can you please do me a favor and post a pic of the second intake mount you made, i might do the same for mine. Thanks man.

Hey thanks for posting the pic man. This bracket you bought was already made or did you purchase the aluminum strip and made the bracket yourself? If it came already made can i ask you what the name of the piece is referred to as? Thanks man.

Had a JWT pop charger. Loved it. Have a Fujita now. Love it even more.

Actually, I still have the JWT in the garage somewhere... saving it as a backup, just in case I suppose.

The injen cai is a good intake nice top end power, the only problem is the mounting bracket, its too high and will break, due to the engine moving durning hard shifts, i hade the nismo cai also which is more quiet, but doesn't feel as open as the injen. i turn my injen in to a short ram with a apexi power filter it works great.

Hey what year did you purchase your CAI? Because i PM'ed Chern and he said the newer INJEN CAI have a better mounting bracket than what they had before.
