The time has come for me to buy an intake for the car. Ive narrowed it down to either the Comptech Ice box or the K&N FIPK. Now ive researched and found that apparently, the K&N does make a bit more power than the comptech does. However I did read that the Comptech had some fitment issues and the hood prop did not fit correctly. I like the look of the comptech system but its also 100 bucks more. Just wondering if anyone had any previous experiences or maybe knew some more information. Thank you in advance.

Pics would be nice if possible as well...

 

The K and N rocks! That's what I've got!

 

 

I say CT and get the hood struts. No prop rod needed.

 

I have the kn FPIK too sounds good but no noticable power increase

 

Does anybody have any pics possibly of each??

 

neither will give you significant gains. I too have heard of comptech fitment issues, but I have no first hand experience. Get the comptech if you want some more engine bling, otherwise get the k&n for $100 less.

 

i say K&N.... I had a comptech one initially.. i ended up changing it to the K&N one... easy to maintain... and it will make your car sound like a beast!!

 

Did the comptech not have the sound that the K&N has? Comparable? Maint.?

 

K&N is louder... maintenance you can just simply take out the K&N filter and oil it.. its made out of normal filter material.. the comptech one is like a sponge material.. :|

I like the K&N one better
