"Best" Intake: Injen, aFe or BMS DCI?

These threads are older than dirt, stop reviving them.

The best intake is one that replaces the restrictive factory routing. Go with the VRSF or TFT or MMP inlets. Ya gotta relocate some stuff but there's huge gains and at least one of them costs less than the afe/injen.

Yes, Stett CAI has lower IATs than dual cone intakes. Ultimate Racing CAI is even better having smoother bends.

CAI which would replace also the turbo inlets would flow even better and having two filters rather than one would be the icing on the cake.

Can inlets benefit those of us on stock turbos?
I heard inlets are for those on aftermarket high HP/TQ builds.

There will definitely be gains on a FBO stock turbo car. Definitely less than the larger stock frame turbo setups but still better than the conventional intake system.

Where can I go to put deposit on your inlets?

Unfortunately our website doesn't have the ability to take deposits, only full payments. I'd hold off until we have a concrete date of arrival on the filters. Our supplier gave us some optimistic ETA's that they're having trouble meeting.
