ETS. For price, quality and customer service, they are your best bet for a complete kit. If you just want an intake any brand will do.

agreed, ETS is top notch, as is MAP. I am going to go with a JM Fab intake hard pipe with a perrin filter. JMF has top notch quality parts with the customer service to back it up.

injen, well good price for everything you are going to get, but there are much better options out there.

STM makes a very nice intake, although you will pay for it. If going with a new filter as well, I highly encourage you to go with an oil-less filter such as Amsoil or AEM. Oiled filters require more maintenance and can coat the MAF sensor with oil. Dry filters do not attract dust, can simply be blown with air to clean, and will not get any oil on the very sensetive MAF sensor.

I like the silicon turbo inlet tubes since they screw with the MAF scaling less. The complete Perrin kit is a great kit, otherwise you can get the Samco hose and pair it with either the Perrin or Amsoil filter.

BUt Perrin is one of the oil dipped filters y am i being told not to get them? and is it really a good kit? i was sketchy about it because of the silicon intake boot i feel like hard pipes would just be better/.
