i say go with a HKS Kansai CF airbox & then run any cone filter you want.

They are all pretty much the same. I noticed a lot of members got the hks rs intake which resulted very little power gains after a tune, or the arc intake for looks. If you dont get a reflash, piggyback, standalone, you will have probs with an aftermarket intake I have done a lot of research and resorted to using my stock airbox after reading a crapload of threads on this subject. Please do a search again and read

Stock with a K&N filter is a good choice... can't go wrong.

We also like the HKS RS or the Injen kits.

APS made the most power for me. I tried 3 different ones and got the most hp from the APS. If you have a 05 MR it wont fit
