Gains for drop ins alone will be a few whp less throughout. If you can get the smooth tubes for around $100 and the panel filters for around $100, for $200 its a LOT of bang for the buck, especially considering how easy it is to install and swap out for cleaning.

If you are on a tight budget and can only pick one, I'd say go for the panel filters alone.

Although you will gain a good bit more with the G3's, for me the price difference just isn't justified -- more than twice as much for 6-8 more whp and the hassle of removing the bumper.

If you can find a set used ($300ish ball park) I'd say its worth it, but only then.

I'm going to see about the delay in the Swift racing intake and see if I can get that moving again -- details here Interest is New Intake Design? Looking for a test car!

If I can get that moving again -- I think that would be the best of all worlds.

Calling Swift to express interest certainly couldn't hurt...
