i'm an advocate for k&n since i'm so satisfied with mine. i really cant say much about the other brands because i didnt try them. the k&n 57 series FIPK is CARB legal afaik, but the 63 series that i have isnt. theres really no difference between the two except the 63 series is "newer"

welcome to s2ki community...i have tried the knn, injen CAI, and modified oem airbox...i still sometimes interchange the 3 intakes once in a while..and base on my observation on using this 3 intake types on both my s2k (my03 and my06).. i love the modified oem airbox the best..but the 2 other intakes sound better than the oem modded airbox...
but the car drives a little less smoother, but its just me, others might have a different opinion..
so which is the best intake? im still looking for it as well, but so far modded oem airbox with some type of snorkle FTW!

welcome! Its all up to you, you dont really have to listen to what ppl say here when it comes to opinions cuz its biased, just get what you want and whatever u know or feel will make you happy.
personally a CAI in Cali is a def plus in the summer heat and winter seasons. Especially since it does not rain much you should be good. The k&ns are good too but when summer comes like todays 3 digit heat hear in socal it realy comes down hard on ur car, as far as heat soak is concerned. and expecially where ur at, its hella hot!!!! i was there this weekend and i was still sweating with the top down. LOL
I ended up choosing something in between. A mugen replica intake.
btw most big named intake are expensive but most of them are carb legal, partly why its expensive. try researching them on their main website.
But again, get what you feel is good for you and what will make you happy, thats what i did, for me it is worth it.
Otherwise good luck on whatever you choose!

If it doesn't rain at all where you live then the AEM CAI makes the most peak power from the dynos I've seen.
I have the comptech intake, which I think makes a some power from 3-5k and sounds great. Looks great too, but it doesn't work with the hood prop, so you have to get hood struts. A nice mod anyway.
