Performance wise you wont notice any difference in any cold air intake. Any V2 CAI sounds great. I heard sum stuff about Injen's CAI breaking, but i've also heard a lot of good stuff about them. Personally I went with RRM because of amazing customer service. If you want to spend 20 more bucks get the Injen, and it hase bigger piping. Or you can wait for RRM's CAI but I have no clue when that would come out.

Why does it matter that you have an automatic when you purchase a CAI? What does one have to do with the other?

CAI's designed for the MT Ralliart won't fit AT Ralliarts. The AT's have less clearance under the hood due to a larger transmission.

Mitsu, you might want to shoot an e-mail to the guys at RRM on this one; it seems wasteful to wait for a response when everybody wants to post that the RRM kit doesn't work for automatics, and obviously you didn't ask that.

The automatic transmission is way wider than a manual, so there isn't enough clearance for a CAI. If you compared the auto to the manual side by side, the auto is a behemoth in comparison.
