    AFE ProdryS drop in filter. The OEM system is already a CAI. I would ask for something else.

    If you REALLY have your heart set on a CAI, go for the URD or even the TRD is fine.

    +1 to what wilson said. Also if you choose the afe pro dry drop in route, try removal of the secondary filter as well. There is a thread that describes how to proceed with it in this forum. And I love my TRD CAI! haha

    Good luck bro

    I stand by my findings that the removal of the secondary (charcaol) filter has no impact on performance. Gaget found none as well.

    Orig post asked which CAI is the best. I'm going to say that of the three I've seen, only two are of diff designs and only one says 'TRD' on it so from a WARRANTY issue while I think dealer/factory would have a hard time saying any intake caused problems, since they can't say they factory intake caused they problems, I'm saying the TRD intake is the best intake.
