Pick a intake and if you have real numbers to back up why post them too.

Yes But... The Apexi is only designed to block the direct flow from the rad, while the Pettit ideally separates the intakes from the rest of the engine bay. At least thats what they claim.

I have a big intakes page on my site. See the URL below, and go to: Upgrades --> Engine --> Intake.

I really like the M2 one. Bit pricey for the new CF model, though. But for the low volume that is the FD market, I guess you can't complain.

Cheers,

FTL is the best intake, you won't be able to find one unless its on partstrader though. The FTL is a true cold air intake with nice piping, I'll see if I can get a picture or two in the next few days.

tri point engineering also made a great intake. one of the best besides M2 if you ask me. the FTL was a nice unit too but not as good as the tri-point. the tri-point was also a true cold air set-up not like that pettit crap. I have a tri point for sale in the parts section.
look at steves site and see what people said about the tri-point intake
if you want pics of the FTL intake i'm SURE jim labreck(sp) has a few, ask him
go here and see what people say about the tri point and others:
