I wouldnt buy either. Preformance wise the stock boxes are good for like 500HP.

Pull the tape off the fender under the air box and drilla few hole in the side. It will let some cooler air in.

yep, just drill some big holes PRE filter,

i didnt realize i didnt need an intake untill after i bought the k&n 77 series, it does make the turbo sound louder though maybe a couple extra ponies too

I had the AFE stage 2 and it was ok, the turbo sounds pretty cool but as far as performance I think it is minimal over stock.

I have a K&N intake w/ an AFE filter, but I also did some mods to the intake for a cooler charge and it seems to have worked... total cost was $300 after all was done
