Air intake

What is the best air intake? I don't want a cheap one that goes half way. I want one that goes all the way to the throttle body. Any suggestions?

im interested aswell. not alot of people make them for the NA. theres always Spectre from AutoZone, the one that you build yourself, but its not nearly as visually appealing as a nice one piece. as near as i can tell, any short ram intake that starts with a 90* bend is a good one to start off with, and then just make sure the measurements add up. this would be a great place for people to show pictures of their set ups!

I haven't seen one that goes all the way...

I can make you one though. I'll sell it to you for $200 or so. Professional quality with a KN filter.

I think the ebay ones are pretty much our only option for an intake. Just remember they are for looks and sound only, and no gains have been shown. As a matter of fact, some intakes have shown a minimal loss in power.
