Default Intake opionons please

I am sure this is beat ot death, but I could not find a thread showing which is more preferred. Not looking for any bashing of course, but I have no clue what the difference is between the VARARAM, and the Halitech Stinger. Can someone enlighten me so that I can make an educated purchase. I have a bone stock 03z (better be here today! delayed shipping). Thanks in advance...

The largest difference between the CAI systems is where they are getting the air from. The Vara-Ram runs all the way down to the screened air intakes on the front of the car (I have this one and am well pleased) I'm pretty sure all the others get their air from under the car between the radiator shroud and radiator (which requires cutting the shroud or replacing it). If I had to make a second choice I believe I would go with the Hurricaine as it seems to be designed to make the most of getting air from this location.
