Best intake system??

Hey guys, my car is stock interally, but i have got a Random Technologies Hi-flow Cat, and Borla Cat back exhaust w/ Draxas Race Headers. I was wondering what the best cold air intake system would be, or even a if a short ram intake would be better?? There's AEM, Fujita, Injen, K&N...etc??

I'd go with a Simota from gary(Kargoboy).

Better price. atube is a tube...the real effect is the flow of the filter

a throttle body is NOT a major bolt on. It will provide NO gain on an NA application for your car
