Afe air intake for e90 325i. which one to get?

Hey, i need a little advice of which route to go in deciding between these two types of cold air intakes. I have the 2006 325i by the way. I know the prices are a little bit different, but i fell like the higher price one is just selling you the carbon fiber look and the size of it, but that is just me. So if any one can suggest which one to get and also if anyone has eather one of them and tell me how is it and the feeling of the ride. thanks everyone

if you must get one get the si
it atleast doesnt suffer from the heat soak the regular one does

personally i would just go for a eurobox and ifnot...charcoal delete + k&n filter

just my 2 cents

^-^ What these guys said...Stay away from aFe, unless you want to lose torque and HP for the benefit of annoying sound.
