Thanks much for the insight. Been shopping a bit online and see some great stuff from Dinan & Magnaflow. It seems K&N doesn't make the intake assembly for the 128 (though of course the cone filter is avail)

So, this is absolutely sick, though is a completely foreign (and a bit intimidating) configuration for me. If I can add +14hp & +16ft-lbs for $1299... it seems that this might be a better buy, adding +12hp & +11ft=lbs for $500. I tend not to like to half-ass things though... and that carbon fiber cold air is really calling my name. Where exactly is air pulled in on this assembly?

Anyone have advice on pros/cons of either of these? What would you recommend? Also, I've seen a simple short-arm intake online somewhere, from the manifold just out to where the cone filter would hang in the cavity where my current stock intake is. Looked great - raw, simple.

Any other advice, suggestions for a specific config?
