Do you want a cold air or warmer air intake? CAI, I would go for the PRI, if you want a warmer air intake go with the JWT POP. later

PR or HS CAI, just more bang for your buck, the wepon r is almost as expensive as the CAI, and I am sure that it won't make the power that a CAI does

If you just want a wai, the weapon r is great for $70. I felt a big increase in power over 3500 rpm, and its only $70!

Either do the open air box mod(FREE) or the CAI. Don't waste the money on a WAI.

Have had both CAIs and the HS fits much better. The PR gave me a flat spot at 3k, but with the HS, the flat spot is gone. Get the HS and be happy.

Well, I say PRI because in my experience on the b15 bb the HS CAI has had alot of fitment problems. I know the PRI piece is not perfect because there has been some problems w/them too, but less than HS. But this is based on the b15 so it may be better for the b14, just like Eric said his is better. later

That's funny, I like my "WAI" over the stocker box anyday and I don't feel like I wasted my money.

I had a PR CAI but I sold it because I'm going turbo. Put the stock open air box on and it felt different than the CAI. Bought a JWT POP Charger and it made the car feel sluggish compared to the open air box. $120 is not worth it when you can just spend a little more and get a CAI, much better investment.

I hear that. I guess I only chimed in because no one likes to mention the fact that you CAN fuck up with the whole CAI/water combination......

Just thought I should mention that some new person might want to consider buying AEM by-pass for thier CAI.

Maybe I'm just old fashioned about my intakes and avoiding our Houston flash floods.... http://laf.cioe.com/~benbobbo/NonCGI/smile.gif

Call me stupid or just old fashioned but I just don't like the idea of cutting holes in my car or an intake I just paid 200 for(bypass valve). Plus water and my engine will not get along well. later

Ive seen both but dont have either.

The rubber coupling near the tb on the hs looked kinda flexed, my frineds celica GTS has an injen that fits the same way, and he says its fine. I still think the pr looks nicer when installed properly.

For me it would come down to eventually would be the $$, But do both have the ability to change to a WAI for flash floods and so forth?
