I've seen this Intake on an '07 S and spoke with the owner about it. Fitment is ok but the C/F cover sometimes rubs on the hood but he has an aftermarket hood so take that with a grain of salt. I would not consider that a CAI, IMO FWIW.

that is a short ram intake. dont really know how they say its a cold air, maybe because of its placement and draws air from the whole on the inside fender of that side? not sure.

At one time I had the old style and after playing with it for awhile, I never had any issues.

I dont think one is better then the other, i think the new version looks better though. Even with the new design i had to get rid of my hood prop though

^^ I don't consider K&N a CAI either.

Also, your Celsius to Fahrenheit conversion is a little off... This link is to help you out
