Default Cold Air Intakes - Suggest me!

I’m bit confused with what cold air intakes would be better for my Supra. All my friends are suggesting K&N, but I came out with this video showing cold air intakes. Just check it out and let me know if these are better to install.

so, you're asking about a CAI for your Japanese Supra, you post a video about an intake made for an American Camaro asking if it will work on a forum for a German 3-series

Steven, please don't ban this guy, his threads are so funny

Forget cold air intakes. Just get a turbonator. You'll get 15 times the amount of speed all for the same price of a cold air intake. Best of all, it only takes 15 minutes to install.

For more info, go here:

Hey guys, I recently installed a K&N CAI kit on my 97 TI. Is there supposed to be any power gain? It really feels the same, except for the loud sound.

The OP is clearly advertising for the company showcased in then youtube video. Spectre or w/e.This is general thread they probably started in a variety of different car forums. Pay no attention to it. btw i have a custom spectre intake in my ti hehe. It doesn't help in terms of performance much neither is the sound great. It does sound nice when the engine is under load and it only cost me around $40 to put together so I'm not complaining.
