I am having a hard time picking a cold air itake. Should I get the AEM or the TurboXS? The AEM is harder to install but has the air straighner, but the TurboXS is all one piece and easier to install but has no air straighner. Testimonies and reviews welcome. Thanks in advance!

Honest to god, if you're thinking a CAI is on the list of "hard to install" no matter who makes it, put down the wrenches and pay someone a beer to do it. I did the AEM install in my car in about 20 minutes. It works just fine and looks good.

install on CAIs is a sinch. Did my CP-E SRI in about 20 minutes or so... and that was with accidentilly mounting the bracket upside-down, then having to fix it.

AEM makes really great intakes, you can't go wrong with them. Now that you'll have a CAI soon, make sure you watch where you drive, and avoid deep puddles. Btw, if you find the install challenging, don't even think about doing the downpipe.
