Default Opinion on Cold Air Intakes

Since I have my car tore apart waiting to put the new Clutch in, I've been wanting a Cold Air Intake now and can't really decided what one to get. I was assuming the JLT would be the best because of the price. haha

Options:

Our price: $299.99

5.0 Mustang Cold Air Intake Kit (94-95 GT)
Our price: $79.99

Stack Racing 5.0 Cold Air Intake (94-95 GT)
On Sale: $159.99

K&N Mustang FIPK Air Intake Kit (94-95 5.0 V8)
Our price: $174.99

BBK Cold Air Intake (94-95 5.0L)
Our price: $179.99

JLT Performance Cold Air Intake (94-95 GT & Cobra)
Our price: $214.99

Edit: I lied, the JLT doesn't cost the most.

I'd put my money towards something else....but if your going to get one I'd do the JLT...it won't get hot like the other metal ones.

Do not buy the elcheapo one. I ordered one from AM and it was terrible fitment and the size of the filter is misleading. It is tiny.....good enough for a V6 maybe? Holes didn't line up and joiners were plastic/vinyl. AT any rate, I got rid of it bought a BBK. Fitment and quality is great. Nice big filter as well. I wouldn't debate this for too long.....just buy a brand name one and you'll be fine.

just keep your eye on the for sale sections, they are nice for show pieces and you get a little more out of it...but not worth anything over $100 at the max, thats ridiculous!

He is a 5L car so the cheap and good moroso is all he needs.

I don't know what this moroso one you speak of is like, but if it the same as the one AM sells, it is a POS......and for a non-modified 5.0, may work fine, but for a modded one, I wouldn't even consider it. Spend a little bit more the first time and save yourself the hasle of having to EBAY it later!~ LOL

No Moroso is a big well established company. However they seem to no longer sell their 94-95 5L kit. All they have is the 93 and earlier model.
