I understand that a cone filter sucks more air. But our cars have an undertray and all intake air has passed through the radiator. Cool air is denser than warm air, that is why the old muscle cars had hoodscoops. And are not both intakes limited by the same maf?
I'm not being argumentative or flaming. I just am not sure that an intake is really
a huge improvement over a drop-in

I don't know why people would be saying to get Fujita vs Injen. How about neither and only spend $80 on a Buschur cone filter (or equivalent)?

As a user of the fujita please dont get it!... it rubs, Their customer service is horrible, the pipes are not rolled at the ends and blow off during boost even with t-clamps, Im replacing mine and going with AMS.

Anyone interested in getting the Fujita should do some searching on the socalevo forum. There are a lot of people there that have purchased it, and they have the solutions to all of the problems that it creates. Mainly. if you buy it, "do not use the fujita filter" that is provided. buy an AEM or similar cone filter and problems should be solved. Apparently the Fujita filter does some funky stuff and makes the car run like poo.

Fujita is going to be offering the lower IC pipe later on this year, as well.
I have the Fujita intake. Not too bad. I had to do a bit of tuning to get it to work correctly. I didnt think about changing the filter.
I like the hard piping tho...its nice. I got the wrinkle black. If you install it correctly, there is NO rub. I got nothing bad to say bout it.

The Fujita comes with upper and lower I/C pipes but if the ends aren't rolled, you'll be hating life when the pipes keep blowing off. I use the Injen kit and have no complaints.

Yeah, but the pipe ends on the Injen kit are rolled. I can't see buying a kit that you'd have to modify to make work correctly. It's a nice kit and is very similar to Injen, don't get me wrong, it's just sucks when you have to pull over to put your pipes back on.
