Which air intake..
I was looking around to see what air intake I should get.. I'm narrowed down to a few.

After installation you can expect the quicker turbo spool, and the turbo will be noticeably louder then stock. Includes polished intake piping, and the world famous HKS air filter.

This ARC cold air box works by incorporating a vortex at the inlet to the box, promoting fast and smooth airflow to the turbo.
The results of this intake are improved spool as well as overall engine response. Direct bolt on intake.

You will see consistent gains in horsepower, throttle response and fuel economy. Our kit includes a power-coated cold rolled steel heat shield to prevent heat soak and a high-flow foam filter and our turbo inlet hose.
If you have any of these, please tell me how you like them

I've heard great things about the Perrin. The ARC is really overpriced for what you're getting but it's more for the bling factor than it is for performance.
I personally have the Apex'i Power Intake and it works great. No need to oil it or anything like that. I heard the HKS intake doesn't do a really great job filtering so I'd try to stay away from that even though it probably looks the coolest.
If I had to recommend three, I would say the Apex'i, Perrin, and the AMSoil filter. All three are great and you can't really go wrong with them. All filter really well while freeing up a few horses.

Vibrant MAF adapter and AMSOil filter.
Kracka made a thread on here with back-to-back-to-back dyno tests of several intakes and this setup was shown the best. It made the most power (just a touch less than no filter at all), filtered great, and the AMSOil filter is easy to clean & maintain. It's the route I'm going.
You can get the Vibrant MAF adapter from MAP, and the AMSOil filter from TTP Engineering. Combined, it'll run you about $75.
