Hey guys I'm thinking about putting a cold air intake system on the car and was just wondering the setups that you guys have.
I don't know whether to run piping down to the front bumper or just do a basic S shape. Another question I have is besides the
noise a pod filter makes is there any other benefits in doing this???

Thanks for your time.

I've got a cone filter SRI in mine. Beside it being more responsive (really not that noticeable either) theres not really any benefit. I guess the sound is cool, makes it sound pissed, but you really dont hear it till around 3grand. If you ever make it up to 5.9grand (which I wouldn't do-bad solenoids made me get caught in a gear while passing) it almost sounds like a turbo spooling up. Haha kinda embarrassing actually. Smoke em if you got em but if I could go back I pbly wouldn't have spent the money on it and saved up for something better. CAI or SRI it really isn't that noticeable until your motor actually needs a ton of air.
