The Stillen G3 makes good power in the upper range, but is 3X's the cost of K&N's and required removal of the front facia and cutting of the front cross member, ruling it out for me. The sound is great, however. More pronounced at WOT than the K&Ns (which does yield some good sound nonetheless).
Definitely search here. You'll find some great data about the K&N's, both in terms of gains and the ability of the stock boxes to keep air temps close to ambient.

What about the K&N cold air intakes.....I dont like the idea of having to take the front end of the car off every time I want to clean my air filters.....I do understand the K&Ns do not get as much cool air as the Stillens.....but I am willing to sacrafice that....
