Stock air box with a drop in K&N.

There is really no power to be had with an intake on the M42/M44.

The stock air box is a cai, just debaffle and remove the extra snorkel crap.

you could get a Dinan, they have the air filter mounted high enough to not get wet, they're discontinued and pretty rare though

you could also get the cold air intake from cosmoracing.com and modify it like this:

the end result is pretty similar to the Dinan intake

Seriously though, everyone knows CAI's improve fuel economy and net HUGE HP gains on these cars:rolleyes:

Woah Jess. If be careful posting that. That supercharger could cause serious gain in hp and some one could lose control.
